This new group is actively looking for members and has room to grow. We are looking forward to meeting you and helping you find new markets, or customers.
What does a sustainable life look like, feel like, taste like?
How can we go forward with sustainability in our lives--whether it is with giant steps like an ecovillage, baby steps in a city/suburb, or something in between?
How does sustainability start, then grow, and finally reach a tipping point where it spreads to others?
Although led by Patricia Allison, long-time Permaculture teacher, founder of Earthaven Ecovillage, and consultant to our ecovillage east of Rockwall, this is a participatory meeting. We will split up in different groups, all move from table to table--talking about one particular part of sustainability, then move on to talk about another.
This was Patricia's suggestion rather than a dinner. And it sounds great to me! We will start at 6:30 and will provide snacks if the venue makes it possible.
And speaking of venues, please don't forget: Any suggestions about where to meet in this area will be welcome to me as a newcomer.
The purpose of this tour is to describe the unique challenges of building a “green” home on a budget in an urban environment, given high cost of real estate and the current home buying/construction environment.
The tour should be of interest to anyone interested in building a home, considering remodeling/retrofitting, or for learning about green home building in general.
The tour designed for all audiences. The home owners will share their experience in researching how to build a green home, and the challenges encountered during the home building process.
Tours will take pace at 1:00 pm, 2:30 pm and 4:00 pm.
Admission is $5 at the door with all proceeded going to the Dallas Sierra Club. The tour location is 8520 Thunderbird Lane in Dallas (just a short distance fro the DART White Rock Station). Here is a Google Map. Limit 30 people per tour group. Contact Devin Trousdale to RSVP.
