	Permaculture Book Club: The Service Berry

Join our Permaculture Book Club as we delve into The Service Berry by Robin Wall Kimmerer, a powerful exploration of reciprocity, Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge, and the ethics of giving. Together, we’ll share guided dialogue during our zoom sessions and integrate how permaculture principles—especially alternative economics rooted in gifting, mutual aid, and community nourishment—can reshape the way we grow food in our urban environments.

This fall, we will connect the book’s teachings directly to practice by cultivating a shared garden plot dedicated entirely to giving, sharing, and increasing abundance for our community. Through reading, discussion, and hands‑on gardening, we’ll explore how reciprocal relationships with land and people can transform our approach to urban food systems.

What We’ll Explore
Reciprocity as a guiding ethic in gardening and community care

Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge and its relevance to urban permaculture

Gifting economies and alternative models of abundance

Community‑centered food systems that prioritize shared yield over individual harvest

Fall garden collaboration focused on service, generosity, and ecological stewardship

Who This Is For
Gardeners and growers

Food activists and community organizers

Educators, students, and lifelong learners

Anyone interested in reconnecting with Indigenous wisdom, serving community, and cultivating abundance.

Zoom Meeting dates: Wed Sept 16th.
Second Wed: Oct 15 and Nov 11
Time: 7pm -8pm

Our Shared Project: A Fall Reciprocity Garden
Participants will be encouraged to create a fall garden plot designed as a living expression of reciprocity—where every seed, every harvest, and every act of care is offered back to the community. This collaboration will serve as a model for abundance‑based design and a reminder that generosity is a powerful ecological strategy.
