Wed, Sept 2, 2015

Santa Barbara Central Library (downtown), Faulkner Gallery
~Designing a world where people & planet can thrive~


Can our impact on the planet be a positive instead of negative one?

Join us for an evening of Permaculture inspiration at the Santa Barbara 
Premiere of INHABIT, a feature length documentary introducing permaculture. 

The award winning documentary INHABIT - A Permaculture Perspective showcases 
permaculture projects and the way they regenerate our world.  INHABIT 
explores the many environmental and agricultural issues facing us today and 
examines solutions that are being applied using the ecological design process 
called 'Permaculture'.

Permaculture is a design science based on the observation and replication of 
patterns and relationships found in nature; it is an approach to designing 
sustainable systems of agriculture, community, economics, politics, and more. 
 INHABIT looks at practices in rural, suburban, and urban environments to 
explore the breadth of response to local and global challenges - from issues 
of food, water, and medicine, to governance, economy, and culture.  It is an 
attempt to illuminate certain societal and planetary ails through the lens of 
on-ground, Earth-based solutions.

The event takes place on Wed, Sept 2, 6:30-8:30pm, at the downtown Santa 
Barbara Central Library, Faulkner Gallery,40 E. Anapamu St, 93101. No 
reservations are required, donations gladly accepted.  More info:

*On hand for the evening will be Guner Tautrim from Orella Ranch where 
Keyline design & other permaculture strategies have been incorporated into 
their landscape with positive results.  Orella Ranch will host an upcoming 3 
day workshop with Mark Shepard, author of Restoration Agriculture, whose work 
and farm is featured in the INHABIT film. 
 
have all of the benefits of natural, perennial ecosystems and create 
agricultural systems that imitate nature in form and function while still 
providing for our food, building, fuel and many other needs ­ in your own 
backyard, farm or ranch
