Our next guest speakers, James Spicer and Sam Sneller, will share about the the ecological principles combined with a design method that "help to create sustainable, healthy abundant landscapes while meeting basic human needs." Come learn the basic principals of permaculture, trees and shrubs to consider this fall and start planting for the future at Sustainable Tulsa's next First Thursdays! |
