Our topic this month is Aquaponics and we'll show a
video on "Aquaponics Made Easy" and one on famed Austrian farmer Sepp Holzer's
permaculture-style aquaculture ponds. Then we'll have a discussion on how new
ways of providing this vital, healthy protein can be implemented here in Santa
Barbara. We had hoped to have speakers from the community but so far none are
available this Wednesday, so if you have any experience please come and share
it. And if you just have questions, come learn with us!
At this meeting we'll also welcome and congratulate the new graduates of the SBCC
Permaculture Design Course!
Looking forward to seeing you there,
Mike Vergeer and Larry Saltzman, Co-Chairs
Permaculture Guild of Santa Barbara
"...the greatest change we need to make is from consumption to
production, even if on a small scale, in our own gardens. If only 10% of us do
this, there is enough for everyone. Hence the futility of revolutionaries who
have no gardens, who depend on the very system they attack, and who produce
words and bullets, not food and shelter."
~ Bill Mollison, co-creator of the
Permaculture concept
