Workshops. After the rainy season they will begin again. Call or email us

Call Planet Drum Foundation, (415) 285-6556 or email at mail@planetdrum.org

The workshops include an inspiring full day field immersion workshop in your choice of two
amazing natural areas. This is a must for learning about and
illustrating what makes our bioregion distinct from any other on the planet.
We will explore a holistic ecological approach to
identifying and understanding Northern California's unique climate,
weather, soil, landforms, watersheds, and native wildlife. Emphasis is
on observation of natural characteristics, discussing interrelationships
and
sustainability, and practicing hands-on learning techniques in amazing
environments that have remained relatively unchanged for thousands of
years. In the workshop, you will:
 |
Participate in easy-to-follow bioregional map-making of your own
life-place. |
|
Explore native habitats that coexist with urban
surroundings. |
|
Undertake new environmental teaching exercises. |
|
Acquire skills to share with students, colleagues, and
friends. |
|
Observe and discuss native habitat restoration
and/or composting
activities.
|
|
Obtain indispensable take-home materials. |
Sliding scale $35-$50 (Limited scholarships (full scholarships for
SFUSD teachers) and work exchanges available). Price includes workshop participation and project
materials.
These Workshops have been sponsored in part through grants from the San Francisco
Department of the Environment, Alameda County Community Stewardship Grant
Program, the Bill Graham Foundation, and private scholarships.
Explore urban wild places! See sustainability in action! Learn about native
plants and restoration projects!
