Hi Everyone-

Our next meeting will be hosted by Carol Ostroff  who has generously offered to share her garden as a meeting site, and talk about biodynamic preparations for the garden and compost pile.  Carol is the founder of the Herb Circle, and in past days when the CEC (Community Environmental Council) still had its beautiful garden site, was the manager of the herb garden & green house.  She is also a long time student of Hanna Kroeger, master herbalist.  Biodynamics recognizes gardens and farms as living organisms, wow, what a concept!  Please join us as Carol explains some of the mysteries of biodynamics.

The meeting will be held on Thursday, Oct 26, at 6pm, parking on the street across from the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, at 1212 Mission Canyon Rd, with someone at that point there to guide you to Carol's home.  We will have light snacks, and as usual encourage you to bring something to share.  It's the fall harvest season, a great time to share seeds, veggies and fruit from your gardens, and other plant material.


South Coast Permaculture Guild meetings usually take place the third Thursday of the month.  We have postponed this meeting one week, as many of our members will be attending the Bioneers Conference (www.bioneers.org) in San Rafael, CA.  We will resume our regular time in November, that meeting will be on November 17, time and location to be announced.

Hope to see you soon-
