Grab your gloves — it's time to get our hands dirty! 🌱 The East Bay Permaculture Guild is partnering with the Oakland Peace Center for community garden work day on 7/25, this is preceding the memorial to Marcus Zamani and honoring his legacy. This is the foundation of a long-term edible + medicinal community garden project that will share fresh food with EBPG members, OPC neighbors, Wood St. Commons, and building organizations serving unhoused community members. This month Grace from Community Organized Relief Effort (CORE) will be leading a disaster preparedness workshop! Learn how to pack a go bag, make a plan, and connect with neighbors to build resilience ahead of earthquakes, fires, storms, and everyday emergencies. Leave with preparedness items to start your kit — participants will also be entered into a raffle to win a Stealth Angel go-bag! On the agenda: 🪵Water and Weed 🪧 Make and place some signs 🌱 Clear and plant the area near the watering spigot 🪣 Begin clearing the area near the building entrance (from parking lot) maybe even pruning the pride of Madiera back real hard Harvest! 🍱 Snacks and lunch provided Resilience and Preparedness Workshop with Grace from CORE Response. Have something you would like to add to the agenda? Let us know! Whether you're an experienced gardener or a total beginner, we need you! Come for an hour or stay the whole day. We're aiming for ~12 volunteers and need 5–6 experienced gardeners/project leads to help manage work teams. Questions? Email EBpermieguild@proton.me RSVP so we can plan tools + food. This garden is rooted in a 2.5-year vision: an edible, medicinal, community-tended space for all who call OPC home.🏡
