[Scpg] Monthly Greywater Workshops, including Rain Harvesting Strategies

[Joan Stevens]

Spreading the word about an amazing permie offering amazing workshops!

 "...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

March 13th - Greywater and Rain Water Workshop
9-Noon
$35.
Workshop will explain in detail how to design and install a washing machine greywater system to divert wastewater to fruit trees and plants. Topics covered are plumbing layout, installation, safe soaps, soil test and the new greywater code . 

We will also look at strategies to collect rain water, in our tanks, barrels, and most importantly in the land by using earthworks and berms. Our half acre site in South Park demonstrates how we are collecting thousands of gallons of rain and storing it in our soil. We have several types of rain barrels on display also.
