Dayna BaumeisterThis three-day workshop is a very special opportunity to be introduced to the world of biomimicry by a keystone in the community, global biomimicry thought leader and Biomimicry 3.8 co-founder Dr. Dayna Baumeister (Plenary, Bioneers 2011).

To create an enriched learning experience, we're excited to announce that Regina Rowland, PhD will be on hand to provide visual recordings (hand drawn panels) that will further enhance the facilitation and outcomes of this backyard workshop.
