We'll be discussing Hugelkultur -- creating water-conserving, nutritious planting beds by gathering brush and wood and covering them with earth. This can be done by digging a trench in the ground or building up the mound on top of the ground. See http://www.richsoil.com/hugelkultur/ for more info.

 

At 6 pm we will hold our Steering Committee meeting, so please come early! As Larry announced in a separate email, due to his new appointment to the Integrated Pest Management Committee of the city of Santa Barbara, he will be stepping down so we need new folks to take over running the guild if it is to continue. It's easy as we have the basics already set up: an email list, a Facebook group, a free venue where we can show videos and lots of local folks who have taken the PDC or want to do so. All the new team needs to do is add great topics, speakers and events!

 

Let's keep the local permaculture community meeting regularly so we can share what we know...
