St. Paul – The Art of Healing and Resilience Through Permaculture
June 1, 2022 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm CDT
$75
*75 is the fee for all four sessions. Participants are expected to attend all four sessions.
In celebration of May, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and the beginning of Minnesota’s planting season, the Minnesota Humanities Center is collaborating with The SEAD Project (Southeast Asian Diaspora) to provide a cohort interactive learning workshop series based on permaculture, a philosophy that integrates land, resources, people, culture, and the environment through mutually beneficial synergies—imitating systems in nature. This unique series was co-created by SEAD Project, Hindolo Pokawa of Midwest Farmers of Color, and Southeast Asian community healers.
Learning outcomes include:
- Introduction to permaculture philosophy and Southeast Asian practices
- Cross cultural shared knowledge on sustainable community building and living (individually and collectively)
- Healing and connection through planting, storytelling, group reflection, and community meal sharing
- Awareness of agricultural ecosystems
- Gardening and nature tending skills
No prior gardening experience required.
Each session includes authentic Southeast Asian cuisine prepared from local vendors, materials and supplies.

Each session will be in-person. The first session will be held at The SEAD Project offices in North Minneapolis; remaining sessions will be held at the MHC Event Center (987 Ivy Avenue, St. Paul, MN 55106). Space is limited to a maximum of 40 participants.
