About
I grew up in Monterey County. I completed a permaculture design course in Portugal during the summer of 2009. I'm at MPC this semester. I'm interested in networking, talking, working on projects for sustainable living, building, agriculture. I'm also interested in informing people about ecological issues and ways to make our ways of life more secure economically, and environmentally. Eating bananas from Bolivia when we have local fruit in season just doesn't make sense.
Oh! I'm also interested in local opportunities to get my hands dirty. Let's establish some community gardens and start growing food instead of lawn!
