Join us to celebrate the fall equinox on September 22nd!  This is a commUNITY building event with many fun, inspiring and educational activities to participate in!  There will be hands-on workshops and presentations from 1:00 - 7:00 PM focused on permaculture, sustainability, healthy lifestyle, natural building, organic agriculture, resource management, local currency and renewable energy.  This is a fun-raising event to kick-off and support the San Diego CommUNITY Gardening Project!

In partnership with the World Beat Center supporting the International Day of Peace, September 21st.

Cost:  Sliding suggested donation $10-20 (no one turned away for lack of funds).  We also highly value any time, energy, love and material supplies that participants would like to contribute to the cause.

Volunteer:  Please let us know if you are available to help with the logistics of this event.  With so much to do we could use help before, during, and after the big day.
