About Sister Gardens:
Sister Gardens is a 1 acre vegetable and herb garden on the Aria Denver campus. Garden produce is sold at a pay-as-you-can farm stand (including the action day from 9-12), sold to restaurants and is distributed to Warren Village, a transitional housing facility that helps low income single parent families achieve sustainable personal and economic self- sufficiency. Sister Gardens is an emerging hub for food justice and permaculture in the Denver metro area.

About the Permaculture Action Network:
The Permaculture Action Network is a 501(c)3 organization that connects educators, artists, and organizers with broad and diverse audiences to build a regenerative and just world through Permaculture Action Days. Here in Colorado, the action network is active in planning action days, hubs, and courses at urban farms and festivals.
