This year\, join us to demonstrate that permaculture is not just about farms and gardens – it’s about housing\, community\, economy\, energy\, the built environment\, and how we organize our lives in relationship to the ecosystems around us and one another. \nSCHEDULE\n10am             Everyone Welcome to Arrive!!\n10:30am      Opening Circle & Water Ceremony w/ Michael Alcazar\, Angelique Rodriguez & Susana Sandoval\n11:15am        Hands-On Projects Begin (and continue all day!)\n11:30am       Mushroom Cultivation workshop w/ Navona Gallegos & Wildcat\n12pm             Lunch Spread Shared\n12:30pm       Plants for People & Pollinators workshop w/ Courtney Cosgriff of Honeybee Herbals\n1pm               JaJa DJ Set\n1:30pm         Growing and Using Medicinal Herbs workshop w/ Stephanie Syson\n2pm               Sonic Warrior live set\n2:30pm         Off-Grid Solar demo w/ Brittany Heller and Jim Payne\n3pm               Leyla Daze live set\n4pm               Mike Wird hip-hop set \nWORKSHOPS\nMushroom Cultivation w/ Navona Gallegos & Wildcat\n \nPlants For People And Pollinators w/ Courtney Cosgriff\nJoin Courtney Cosgriff of Honeybee Herbals for a discussion on just what’s happening to our precious honeybees and many of our pollinators and how we can utilize medicinal herbs to not only support them but our own health as well.  Planting forage for pollinators and designing gardens to support them is unbelievably crucial to their conservation\, and we get the added benefit of utilizing many of these plants to support our own health and well being. \nGrowing and Using Medicinal Herbs w/ Stephanie Syson \nOff-Grid Solar demo with Brittany Heller & Jim Payne\n \nMUSIC\nMike Wird hip-hop set\nLeyla Daze live set\nSonic Warrior live set\nJaJa DJ Set \nHands-On Projects\nBuilding Earth-Tire Wall “Climate Battery” for Greenhouse\nInstalling Fencing for Chicken Run around Coop\nConstructing Solar Closet\nMounting Solar Panels\nPlanting Edible\, Medicinal\, & Support Species to Build Soil \nWe need your support for this one!

SUMMARY:Permaculture Action Day at Clear Creek Community Food Forest
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a day full of live music\, hands-on projects\, workshops\, skillshares and delicious local food! \n\n\n \n\n\nWe will be working/playing in a four year old food forest — bring tools\, bring a food dish\, come learn about the system\, plant/eat some food and meet new people. \n\n\n \n\n\n“We see this food forest as a pragmatic model that serves as a community learning/experimenting area while providing food\, medicine and Abundance. This space is a working model for how other low-maintenance\, long-visioning systems similar in nature could be communally designed and implemented. We see this space as a sanctuary for humans and wildlife. As we continue to work in this space\, we develop relationships with the native plants\, people and climate\, creating a sense of home place. This is an open community space where we share labor\, experiences and skills together which leads to resilience. Additionally\, this land serves as a propagation resource for the community\, where herbs\, seeds and cultivars of trees can be propagated for future food-focused projects. This project serves as a community resource for food\, medicine\, spiritual growth\, community involvement\, learning\, sharing of skills and access to land in an economically impoverished region. \n\n\n– Written in 2015 as part of the design process –\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\nProjects\, workshops/skillshares and music TBD\n\n\nRolling potluck lunch starting at 1pm\n\n\n \n\n\nThis Permaculture Action Day is in partnership with Burners Without Borders and is made possible\, in part\, by a Southeastern Leadership Civic Ignition Grant.\n\n\n \n\n\nEveryone is welcome to this free\, family-friendly event.\n\n\nClick ‘going\,’ share event and invite your friends on our FACEBOOK EVENT PAGE: https://www.facebook.com/events/2071772749789931/

Exit 56 takes you onto Red Rock Road/610. Follow this until it dead ends. At the dead end\, turn right onto 69. \nTake the 69 more than 10 miles until you see the turn for CR 620 marked by a green road sign and make a right onto the 620. (There’s a patch of ground as you come off the 69 that is a great place to park and carpool into the action day site if you want to squad up.) \nWhen you see a cemetery\, stay left. Keep straight (do not turn when you see the CR 623 sign at the triangle. You’re continuing forward there and to the right of the triangle.)\nLess than a quarter mile past the cemetery you will see a gate; turn left through the Lazy S Ranch signed gate. \nGo past the Lazy S Ranch\, passing with it on your right until you see a church on your left. Shortly after the church you will see a red truck. Make that next right – you will see action day signs with arrows from there.

SUMMARY:A day of action at a local indigenous community site building a community kitchen and restoring stream and forest ecosystems.
DESCRIPTION:Music * Food * Hands-on Projects * Workshops * Taking Action\n\nLogistics:\nAddress: 7102 CR 620 Gardner\, CO 81040. \nJoin Sonic Bloom and the Permaculture Action Network at the Aztlan Cultural Center both Wednesday and Thursday this year before the festival kicks off on Thursday evening for action days.\n\nJune 14th and 15th we’re inviting all attendees of Sonic Bloom\, alongside the general public\, to come to Aztlan Cultural Center in Gardner\, Colorado starting at 11am Wednesday\, June 14th. We know it’s been a challenge in past years to have the action day on Thursday while festival gates are opening\, so this year we’re welcoming people to come Wednesday and to stay overnight.\n\nAction Day participants will be welcome to stay overnight in your own camping setup at Aztlan Cultural Center and join for evening sweat lodge ceremony after Wednesday’s day of action\, and either continue working with us on the land at Aztlan Thursday\, or head to the Sonic Bloom site as early as 10am for early entry alongside VAP package holders.\n\nMany of us will continue to work with the land and the community on Thursday morning and early afternoon\, and any of those who arrived Wednesday and slept over after sweat lodge are welcome to continue with working and building with us\, as well as anyone who is able to only arrive Thursday morning and stay for the day.\n\nBy 4pm Thursday\, June 15th\, we will all have moved over to Sonic Bloom for the festival and to hold space in the workshop hub.\n\nAction Day:\nAztlan Cultural Center is located 40 minutes drive from Hummingbird Ranch and is one of Sonic Bloom’s closest community project neighbors. The center hosts weekly ceremonies and an annual Sun Dance on indigenous held land while welcoming all people to its free ceremonies.\n\nAs we dance and connect in our own special way\, we invite you to stand in solidarity with our indigenous neighbors who are holding their own connection to the land\, spirit\, and each other.\n\nLast year\, we rebuilt the ceremonial arbor used for Sun Dance\, trimmed trees and cut firewood for ceremony – aiding the forest ecosystem adjacent the stream\, and worked on the gardens. We brewed and sprayed compost tea\, and took all festival food scraps to build compost piles.\n\nThis year\, we will be rebuilding parts of the community kitchen that supports the ceremonies\, continuing our tree work and work with the stream-adjacent forest ecosystem\, and looking at installing a new water catchment tank and pumping system\, alongside other ecological projects.\n\nMusic:\nWe’re always joined by a sound system\, DJ’s and performing artists to accompany the day’s projects. Working alongside friends to build\, plant\, and grow while DJs play to the atmosphere. It’s a beautiful experience and we’re excited for you to join. We’ve had some headlining artists play in the past and you never know who might show up to accompany a day of action with song and rhythm. If you want to play\, get in touch with us. We welcome it!\n\nFood:\nWe’ll have community meals to share with folks throughout the event. However\, it will be greatly supportive if you can bring something to share. Potluck style with us baselining some meals will make sure everyone’s fed and nourished. Bringing water and hydrating drinks\, fruit\, and snacks is encouraged and appreciated.\n\nWhat To Bring:\nIn addition to some food and water if you want to contribute to potluck style meals and offerings\, bring tools if you can – basic construction tools; close-toed shoes\, a water bottle to stay hydrated\, and\, if you’re camping overnight\, your tent\, headlamp\, and other camping gear. This is a rural site so come prepared.
