Lightening Your Footprint

This workshop is intended to empower you to go forward with your ideas of how to live more sustainably.

Have you wondered what it means to be sustainable or how you might transition to a more sustainable way of living. What ways are you inspired to make changes in your lifestyle, your neighborhood, workplace or the Houston area that offer more care for the Earth, care for people and creates community?

Through storytelling of active projects in the Houston area, we will discuss and work in small groups and together on your ideas for projects, large or small that you may have envisioned. We will share principles and ways of thinking through how to bring your goals to fruition.

Workshop facilitators are Ray Sher, Andrew Cobb, Melissa Knox, Cavanaugh Nweze, Gary Edmondson, Juan Espinosa

The facilitators of the workshop have a myriad of work experience in facilitation and problem solving. Some have completed the study and practice to earn a Permaculture Design Certificate, others have experience in the not for profit world, working with clients to solve living/working issues, and others are activists working with people to bring change in environmental, economic, financial, food access areas, especially in under served neighborhoods.

Cosponsored by Urban Harvest. Participants must be at least 15 years of age.
