This is the first workshop in a series of two.
Join business and neighborhood leaders as we design a more resilient future for our SE community. This is a facilitated event and an opportunity for us to find ways to support each other in identifying and making changes at the individual household and business level that can lead to a more sustainable community. At the same time we’ll be thinking about ways we can collaborate to make better use of our resources and evolving technologies — all in keeping with the scale and values of our neighborhoods. Participate in a resource mapping exercise to identify systems for energy, waste, water, food production and local economies. The result can be a better bottom line and more livable, resilient neighborhoods.
Speakers include:
Tim Smith of SERA, Steve Couche of the SE Portland Tool Library, Sarah Sullivan of Abernethy’s Garden of Wonders, Reuben Deumling of Sunnyside NA and not yet confirmed Steve Gutmann of Getaround
Encouraged to Attend:
RESIDENTS of Sunnyside, Richmond, Buckman, Mt. Tabor and Hosford-Abernethy
