Hello!
I would like to add the following to the next EnirvoNews!
"On June 24th from 4:30pm-6:00pm come out to PLU-owned reDesign house at
515 125th St S, Tacoma, WA for a smoothie powered work party! We'll be
installing glass bottle edging to the garden beds, weeding and tending to
the annuals, and any number of other projects to get the house ready for an
event in July (http://wahesc.org) We planned for these workparties in the
cooler part of the day, not too long, and powered by organic smoothies
featuring Parkland-grown (perhaps even PLU-grown) fruits when available.
reDesign House is the demonstration site for the PLU Sustainability Office.
The yard and gardens are a partially installed permaculture-designed
landscape and host site to last year's Permaculture Design Course. The
house boasts Solatube lighting, Lotus biomimicry paint, a collection of
sustainability books, and more. The yard currently has fruit tree guilds,
water cistern, fungi logs, and bird & bee houses. Partially completed are a
graywater area, pond, flower gardens, and more."
Thank you,
Brooke Wolfe
