Brock Dolman, Director of Occidental Arts and Ecology Center's (OAEC’s) WATER Institute and Permaculture Program, and he co-directs OAEC's Wildlands Biodiversity Program. He co-instructs Basins of Relations and permaculture-related courses. Brock also co-manages the Center’s biodiversity collection, orchards and 70 acres of wildlands. Living up to his specialized generalist nature, and rekindling the dwindling art of the peripatetic natural historian, his experience ranges from the study of wildlife biology, native California botany and watershed ecology, to the practice of habitat restoration, education about regenerative human settlement design, ethno-ecology, and ecological literacy activism towards societal transformation. Brock will share his extensive knowledge about watershed ecology and how we can make a difference when it comes to our local water sheds.
