Hello everyone-<br><br>Sunday August 7 from 5-9pm La Ancla (a small urban sustainability project) in Ventura will be hosting an open potluck and seed/start swap. This will be a great chance to meet up with great people and share good food. Everyone is welcome! <br>
<br>Our small working class neighborhood between the mountains and the sea also has a ton of recently foreclosed properties for sale with extremely low asking prices (for Southern California 5-20 blocks from the beach), so if you&#39;re interested in intentional communities or co-housing or buying your own place to transform, this is a perfect spot. They are mostly 1/3 acre lots with two different homes built on them from the 20s and 30s and are in the $134k-300k range... The homes are mostly in the absentee slumlord paradigm and we&#39;d like to see more sustainability-minded folks take over fixing these places instead of letting Orange County slumlords carry on exploiting poor and working class folks while these beautiful houses fall down. <br>
<br>La Ancla is located at 573 North Olive Street in Ventura 93001. Please bring food or booze and any seeds/starts you might have to share. Kids and dogs are welcome. Shoot me an email or call (310)910-3755 if you&#39;ve any questions... <br>
