[Central Coast CA Permaculture] Permaculture Reminders: Pancake Breakfast this Sunday Oct. 7 at SLO Guild Hall and Cob Workshops coming in November

[Teresa Lees]

Hello Permaculture Guild,

 

Reminders: Pancake Breakfast Oct. 7th and Cob Workshops Nov. 3rd & 4th  and
Nov. 10th & 11th 

 

The SLO Permaculture Guild is part of the SLO Guild Hall - we sometimes
jokingly call it a "guild of guilds."

It is a "win-win-win" for you to come to the Pancake Breakfast this Sunday,
October 7th at the SLO Guild Hall.

 

WIN #1 - Part of the proceeds will go towards the cob workshops coming to
San Luis Obispo City Farm in November. This earth structure will be an
educational component for students coming on field trips as well as for the
public to come learn how build natural buildings with local clay soil, sand
and straw.

 

Win #2 - Part of the proceeds also help the SLO Guild Hall with sustainable
building renovations.

 

Win #3 - You get a big Sunday breakfast and at 10am you get treated to a
preview of the musical production of the Magic Flute by Opera SLO. Please
donate $10 or more to help out more!!! 

 

Now about the cob workshops. We need your support! Please either donate
through the GoFundMe or register for the workshops! And please spread the
word to others. Please share the Facebook event:

We really do need your help to get this natural building project "off the
ground!" We will be using the ground right under our feet at SLO City Farm
to build this playhouse for kids to enjoy for years to come.

 

Also, come to the Fall Harvest Festival on October 21st to support the SLO
City Farm project and get your hands in the mud as we will start building
the African Mud Hut during the festival.
