New Year, New Home: Intro to Permaculture + Guild Visioning'26
Join the East Bay Permaculture Guild for our first gathering of 2026 and our first ever monthly meeting at McGee Avenue Baptist Church’s social hall (1640 Stuart St, Berkeley, CA) We’ll share food, connect, and root into the question: What is permaculture—and how are we practicing it together this year?
This month will feature:
A “What is Permaculture?” talk with Jessica Bates (bio at the end!) exploring both land-based and social permaculture, with examples from around the Bay.
A short overview of our updated guild structure for 2026 (meetings, partnerships, and project/initiative pathways), plus how you can plug in.
An interactive activity where you can share your ideas for:
* Future meeting topics and speakers
* Partnerships with aligned groups
* Skillshares, projects, and initiatives you’d be excited to participate in or co-steward
Kitchen Note
We cannot use the church stove due to insurance requirement (cost therein), so please bring food ready to serve at room temperature or in containers that don’t require stovetop cooking on site. We’ll have access to the sink and basic cleanup area, and you're welcome to bring a crockpot or hotplate.
