[Central Coast CA Permaculture] We Shall Renew the Earth With Every Step We Take

[Teresa Lees]

Happy Day of Renewal and Resurrection,

 

Lots of events and resources to share with our Permaculture Community during
Spring Break.

Enjoy the spring and all the joy that it can bring.

1.       Renew & Restore the Earth event

Wanted to share some of the rejuvenation and revitalization our community
felt by coming together last Saturday, March 24th.

Due to all the mud that sticks around at City Farm, we relocated the Renew &
Restore the Earth event to Cloisters Park in Morro Bay.
