ROOFTOP GARDEN INSTALLATION WORKSHOP!

WHEN:  Monday, August 17, 5-8pm
WHERE:  POWER’s wonderful new headquarters in the Mission!
WHY:  Come learn the hard skills needed to start growing food on urban rooftops + the role rooftop gardens stand to play in our quest for ecological justice in communities of color!

WHAT WE’LL DO:  Help build a rooftop garden from scratch with the help of installation experts. Through this rooftop garden, POWER’s members will grow healthy produce and begin a community dialogue on the role urban food production will play in our quest for self-sufficiency and community self-determination.

Let’s stand beside our friends in Richmond (APEN-LOP, CBE & West County Toxics Coalition) as they face down California’s biggest corporation – and the World’s 5th largest – Chevron.

We will continue to step up the street heat with actions leading up to the UN Climate Talks in Copenhagen this December:

* Oct 24: International Day for Climate Action
* Nov 30 (10th Anniversary of WTO Seattle): International Day of Action for Climate Justice

Activist individuals and groups can get involved by:
