PLACE for Sustainable Living It is crazy to think that only 4 months ago, the property on 1121 64th St in Oakland, CA was just an empty, run-down old mechanic's shop. Now, approaching the month of July, this space has been completely transformed! The PLACE for Sustainable Living, SLR's community legacy project in Oakland, CA, has become a thriving center for community building, sustainability education, urban homesteading, local events, skill-shares and more! Our most recent projects have been completing our solar shower, procuring chickens, eating leafy greens from our 2,500 sq ft garden, organizing our Art Barn and much more.  As SLR continues to tour, we plan on using our unique model of conscious festivals to bring together community and raise enough funds to jump start similar sustainability community centers across the country.  We call this our Legacy Project program and hope you can come check us out! Check out the website @http://aplaceforsustainableliving.org/ Not too late to Sponsor! SLR is still recruiting sponsors for our 2011 tour. We are a 1% for the Planet recipient; so if you have 1% budgets, please make SLR your choice! We are also looking for more companies to represent and showcase their products as part of our Green Market Place and our FARMacy. If you are interested, please emailzach@sustainablelivingroadshow.org. Additionally, SLR is gearing up to launch our 2012 plans and marketing campaign. As companies put together their plans for 2012 and beyond, we encourage you to consider partnering with SLR. The future is looking very exciting! 2012 is an election year and SLR plans to be touring in full-force. Join us now and ensure your spot on one of the countries most relevant and exciting tours focused around sustainability - who can argue with that!
