Transition Town Santa Barbara (_www.transitiontownsb.org_ 
(http://www.transitiontownsb.org) ) 
invites you to attend  a


Pot Luck Picnic and discussion of how we can build community and a  
resilient local economy through Community Gardens and other  efforts 
Alameda Park (corner Garden  and Sola)
Saturday, April 25, 2009, 12 – 2 PM 
This month's Topic for  Discussion:  "How Can Santa Barbara Create  
Community Gardens for Everyone Who Would Like to Grow Their Own  Food?" 
If you're interested in  helping Santa Barbara transition into a truly 
sustainable and  locally-resilient community, please join us this Saturday, 
April  25th for a Pot Luck picnic and discussion on how we can help build our 
local  economy with Community Gardens and other community efforts. We'd love 
to hear  your ideas! 
Local community gardens  activist Cerena Childress will speak to us about 
what's going  on with Community Gardens in Santa Barbara. 
Community Gardens are just  one way that we can help Santa Barbara become 
more sustainable and  resilient in this era of economic shocks, resource 
shortages and  climate disruption. Last month we talked about the exciting 
Neighborhood  Exchanges that are popping up all over town and this month we'll be 
doing  creative brain-storming about how we can provide garden plots for 
everyone in  SB who would like to grow their own food. 
We'll hear from Cerena and  then we'll break into small groups to talk 
about how community gardens  relate to health, water, food, education, the 
economy, local history, city  politics and much more! We believe that grassroots 
creativity can  solve local problems! 
Please bring some food and drink (no alcohol) to share,  along with your 
own utensils, plates, napkins, cups and blankets to sit  on.  (We're hoping 
for a "green," no-waste picnic!) Also,  let's get into the spirit of 
neighborhood exchange (or what permaculture calls  "share the surplus"), so feel free 
to bring anything else you’d like to share;  such as plants, seeds, food, 
magazines, plants, music/CDs etc. 
See you on  Saturday!
