Greetings,

The Green Team in conjunction with the Cal Poly Pomona Department of
Landscape Architecture Lecture Committee would like to welcome our
Environmental Design colleagues to join us for a lecture with visiting guest Erik Kuntzen: Co-Author of "The Urban Homestead: Your Guide to Self
Sufficient Living in the Heart of the City"

The Urban Homestead is the essential handbook for a fast-growing new
movement: urbanites are becoming gardeners and farmers.  Rejecting both
end-times hand wringing and dewy-eyed faith that technology will save us
from ourselves, urban homesteaders choose instead to act.
By growing their own food and harnessing natural energy, they are planting
seeds for the future of our cities.

Kelly Coyne and Erik Knutzen are creators of the blog homegrownrevolution.org, a green living and self-sufficiency resource for
urbanites. They contribute regularly to Daniel Pinchbeck's new online
magazine, realitysandwich.com. They live in Los Angeles.
