The workshop went very well today and another workshop will be held in the fall.  There were several Gaia College participants so that was fabulous.  Let us know if you're interested by contacting us at:

ccseedsavingcollective@gmail.com  It will be different from today's workshop.

That's great that you're able to offer the workshop for $10, especially as Five Levels of Seed Saving normally costs $6. The seed collective is doing vital work, and I hope a lot of people take advantage of this opportunity.

Forum

Food

Local, organic, rural, and/or urban, food production is a mainstay of life, and doing it well leads to wellness. From farm to kitchen, discussions relating to food--and the community arising around it--belong here.

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
