Unfortunately for me, I became aware of this PDC a couple of days after I had signed up for Geoff’s online PDC. Great PDC but this one, the Permaethos, has a lot of promise since it’s being developed from the ground-up, and for the price, it’s quite a bargain.

Any chance you might take bitcoin for the PDC (upfront payment option)?

What is stopping someone from posting the link elsewhere if you don’t have to verify your MSB? Probably won’t be an issue, but one thing I despise in life is line skippers.

That’s what I thought. Excited to sign up and get started. First PDC.

Luckily, this community doesn’t necessarily attract people who are interested in “being ***holes.” MSB folks are pretty like minded. Not everyone in the MSB is going to want to learn this info and that’s totally OK, but those of us who do want to learn certainly recognize the value that Jack & company are putting together. To short cut that value by posting the link to others who don’t support the MSB would simply be a jerk thing to do. Ok, rant is over. Cheers friends, and let’s get to learning, growing, and living that better life indeed!

Jack,
Is there are way to find out when our MSB membership is up for renewal? My concern would be to go and sign up for the PDC and my membership be expired. Im know Im close, but Im not sure how close.
Thank you sir
Matt

How is it you are 30 minutes off the rest of the world?

Because Australia is one of those quirky places in the world that deviates from the standard international norm.

They decided that instead of a setting an hour diffrence between adjacent time zones that they would have a only a 30 minute diffrence.

Sorry have to correct myself.

They added an extra 30 minutes to the time in Central Australia in 1899.

I misremembered the reason.

I just read that Geoff Lawton’s PDC graduates are getting signed certificates from Bill Mollison and the Tagari Institute. At first, I was bummed. Then, I realized how much more Jack, Josiah, and Nick will be offering with their PDC; becoming a founding member in Ethos, Elisha’s Spring Farm and other future projects. I have 68 acres in the Catskills and agree 100% with Shane; I’m Stoked!!! I’ve also set a goal to take Geoff’s PDC next year. 6 hours and counting!

Can’t wait Jack! I missed out on the last big thing you promoted with the knife builder…I forget his name. I remember I was waiting and when it was go time his site crashed then by the time I got the email with the new link it was too late. I hope this does not happen. I’m really looking forward to this.

3 hours left. Im so excited. All the buzz should give Jack confidence that the PDC will most likely sell out.

I think this is going to sell out a hell of a lot faster than Jack thinks. My guess is if you are not an MSB member then you will not have a shot at this.

Well I guess I was right. I told you so! I bet that is the best I told you so that you ever heard Jack. I’m so pumped that I’m founding member!

I agree with Max. Many of us are going to sign up with spouses (I know I am) and with other family members.

I emailed Josiah yesterday and discovered you were able to get the videos downloadable. I’m currently taking Lawton’s PDC and ran into a bandwidth issue. I had to wait until his DVDs arrived to continue with the course.

I like the ability to download these at work and bring them home. One of the downsides to living in the middle of nowhere is limited internet options.

Look forward to becoming a founder and working with you in the future as a nursery partner serving the Great Lakes Region.

Alex,
My name is Matt Bishop, marine1371 on the Forum. I live in eastern NC and just like you, would like to have a nursery under the “PermaEthos” name. I would love to hear some of your ideas or discuss ideas on how to make this work. Thanks and only 2 hours left until we get to sign up for the PDC.
Thanks Matt

Matt,

Good to chat with you.

I had a crazy email I was going to send Jack discussing an idea to partner local nurseries under the PermaEthos brand. Then Jack released his podcast and laid the whole idea out.

Go back and listen to Jack’s podcast, but in essence, we are instructed by PermaEthos and certified by them in nursery operation. We grow the nursery items, and as we build the PermaEthos brand together, people will find us through the dealer locator on the PermaEthos website.

The example that Jack used was nursery and honey production. The PermaEthos website will put customers in touch with local producer partners.

That’s a Kick A$$ idea, Jack, and way bigger than any of us here could do on our own.

The paypal receipt? I dont see it on there.

It’s listed under invoice number on the paypal reciept. Invoice ID: PE-LRN-*** at the bottom of the payment information to the right of the page. It’s also at the top of the PermaEthos reciept where it says order number.

The confirmation screen after you submit shows an order # right below where it says “Checkout” (not to be confused with the reference number, which is a little further down the page below the “Thank you for your payment”).

“Order #” (meant to say)

“I don’t think the PDC will sell out in the first day, it might…”

I think so!!!

Signed up, was #98. Until I could get the server to respond and get the wife signed up, I think it was around 380.

Glad to see the PermaEthos project rolling!

I signed up on my laptop through my cell phone; #217 shortly after 1pm. I couldn’t get it to work for my wife so I did the whole process on my cell phone; she’s #598 around 1:35pm. Selling out on the first day seems like a real possibility.

I made it at 982 and then PayPal glitch. Had to borrow a friends phone and still made it. Thanks Jack, I would be upset if I missed this one for sure. What a great opportunity at a great price. Glad to be a founding member of something this Grand.
