Aquaponics rearranged

The new rearrangement of the aquaponics will give us: radicchio, romana, waldsmann, and other kind of salads. Water is pumped to the plants who filter it by absorbing the nutrients and drains down to the fish again.

Cook with the stuff in your garden

As part of our community practices we try to eliminate buying stuff as much as we can. About twice a week we get to cook by pairs using only what we produce from our garden… well, we can actually use flour, oil, and salt. This was our three course dinner:
Artichoke Fetuccini. We ended up doing home made pasta, using the eggs from our chicken, with a sauce made of artichokes, tomatoes and basil.
A complete salad with 4 types of leafs.
Pak Choi stir fry.
Home made bread.
The food was great, but even more, the fact of planting, watering, harvesting, and utilizing your own produce!!!

Freecycling swap event + tour of LeCase

Bring something, take something… and get to know LeCase

Join us this Saturday at LeCase to donate or exchange stuff you don’t need for something you like. Entrance is in the driveway between 827-835 Tourmaline st.

Don’t have anything to bring? No worries, your $10 suggested donation is very much appreciated too and will give you a raffle ticket.

Why are we doing this? We want to improve the environment by keeping useful items out of landfills while helping others in San Diego. This is your chance to swap out things that are in good condition and trade with your neighbors.

What is the guided tour of LeCase about? LeCase is an urban ecovillage with five separate residences, and stands for “Living Equitably Creating A Sustainable Environment”.  At the tour you will get to know how we are making strides to live sustainably through growing our own food using permaculture techniques, composting, gardening using our own efficient water management system, and encouraging a communal lifestyle among the residents.

Here is the program:

2:00 – Swap event starts

2:30 – LeCase Ecovillage Tour

3:00 – Raffle

4:00 – Closure

 

A few things to consider: given our limited space we do not accept items that need to be transported by truck. Please do not bring live animals. Items brought after 4pm will be donated to Goodwill.
