When:

Where:
Alpha Resource Center Santa Barbara
4501 Cathedral Oaks Rd, Goleta, CA 93110
Join The Polish Ambassador, Pushing Through the Pavement: A Permaculture Action Tour, and Lucidity Festival for a Permaculture Action Day in the community of Santa Barbara the day before the festival begins!
Come contribute to a model for productive landscapes that can resist drought, catch and store rainwater, regenerate natural ecology, and produce multi-functional yields that will improve our lives!
We will be creating a drought-tolerant, regenerative landscape at the Alpha Resource Center, a school and multi-faceted service center for folks with developmental disabilities. Alpha Resource Center is committed to Empowering Individuals, Supporting Families and Building a Community that values the contribution of all people; a mission that we share as well. Read more about the Alpha Center here: http://alphasb.org/
We will be working on the 5-acre center alongside Larry Saltzman, a Santa Barbara permaculture educator and designer with 20+ years of experience, and many other talented permaculture designers and teachers, to create a resilient and abundant landscape that will provide nutrition and well-being for the folks the center serves, even in extreme drought.
Food, refreshments, and music will abound; and we always welcome more, so please bring food and drink to share.
We also have a need for tools, although we will provide as many as we can. If you can bring shovels, wheelbarrows, and rakes, please do, and we will tape, label, and ensure their return.
There is still space in the Permaculture Action Course on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday before the Action Day. Register Here: http://
And definitely come to the Permaculture Action Hub Friday, Saturday, and Sunday during the festival in the Lucid University for a full schedule or workshops, skill-shares, discussions, and networking:
