Sonoma County is creating over 1000 actions to grow food, conserve water and save energy on the weekend of May 14 and 15th, as part of the 350 Home and Garden Challenge- its about creating resilient sustainable lives and building community. We need your help to achieve this goal. Each region is organizing and creating projects and getting the word out in their community. Transition Sebastopol needs you to do this in West County.

Tuesday April 12th 7 pm
St Stephen's Church, 500 Robinson Rd.

Please come to an organizing meeting, help generate ideas and pull some creative, inspiring actions together.
Some ideas we are talking about:
- A Water and Energy Saving Wagon Brigade going door to door giving out low flow shower heads and CFLs
- A Bicycle Brigade going around neighborhoods helping gardens emerge or going to all the community gardens and helping at work parties.
-A major lawn burial and garden installation on public land- maybe Spooner Park
- a mini food forest featuring Gravenstein Apples on a public corner that is a watered lawn now
- a neighborhood laundry to landscape greywater installation- a class in the morning and teams going out and helping one another install ( looking for a neighborhood that wants to take this on)

Got an idea, inspired by ours, have skills to help- please come to our meeting

Presented by Jerry Allen and Suzie Gruber
 
Chris Martenson’s Crash Course describes the interdependence & the converging challenges of the 3 E’s: Economy, Energy and the Environment. Chris explains the fundamental structure of our Energy currency and our debt situation, shedding “light on the limits of our present economic model of infinite growth as we face the realities of a planet with finite resources.”
 
While viewing the 45-minute video version of the Crash Course, we will weave group discussion and music in among the presentation, in order to deepen our understanding of the current crisis we face and to open a pathway to prepare and protect our families and our community. Please come join us.
 
We are pleased to hold this event at the Sebastopol Grange, with the endorsement of Transition Sebastopol, two organizations working on building local community resilience. For more information about the Crash Course, go to www.chrismartenson.com .

When: Tuesday, April 12, 7 to 9 p.m.
Where: Sebastopol Grange, 6000 Sebastopol Road/Highway 12
