Transition Houston's October 2012 Permablitz will be hosted at a private residence in Montrose.  It looks like we may have tremendous weather for this one (cool and dry)!

We will meet for a light breakfast and refreshments at 8:30, then talk and walk the work to be done. Groups will then self-organize to do the work in which they are interested, and you are free to change groups to see what everyone else is working on.

Projects include:

  • Build a raised garden bed and fill it with veggies
  • Build vertical planters made from pallets
  • Install a barrel to collect rainwater from the roof runoff
  • Build a rotatable composting bin

The 'Blitz will conclude at 12:30, at which time all will gather for a potluck lunch to celebrate the morning's success!

 

Remember to bring:

  • Sunscreen
  • Insect repellent
  • Hat
  • Clothes you don't mind getting dirty
  • Closed-end shoes you don't mind getting dirty
  • Food for the potluck
  • If you can, your own plates and utensils

(Even if you can't bring something for the potluck please come anyway!)

 

If you can, please bring:

  • Shovels
  • Wheelbarrows
  • Pruning shears
  • Soil knife or sod lifter
