The aim of this Meetup is to foster education, support and community for sustainable living.
You don't have to have a homestead, own property or be in an intentional community to participate. It's about sustainable lifestyles and movement-building wherever we are.
Activities include talks, workshops, work parties, demonstrations, resource/information sharing, meals, socials, projects and other doings to foster sustainable living.
Topics include permaculture, agroecology, organic gardening, rainwater harvesting, backyard orchard culture, sustainable building, voluntary simplicity, salvage, scavenging, Freecycle, alternative energy, mushroom culture, community self-reliance, food sovereignty, microlivestock and poultry, beekeeping, natives, seed keeping, bioremediation, cottage industry, cooking, preserves, soap making, composting, land reform, wildlife landscaping, waste processing, recycling, DIY, aquaculture, tool making, carpentry, activism, community building, alternative transportation, and much more!
I’ll be drawing on members to help organize and lead activities. Think about contributions you’d like to offer!

What members are saying
“ It's a great place to trade excess produce from your garden, enjoy healthy meals and talk about sustainability issues and gardening. ”
“ Because it is a fun way to meet new folks and you get to come home with a bunch of yummy food! What could be better? =) ”
