 | One of our last programs of 2023, a Petaluma Library Maintenance Day, had a fantastic turnout of volunteers! Thanks to all who lent a hand. If you missed it, we hope you'll join us at the Cavanagh Center or Fire Station #2! |
| Happy New Year Daily Actor, We hope you took some time to rest and reflect while celebrating another cycle around the sun. Looking ahead, our team couldn’t be more excited to roll out 2024’s programs! This month, we’re hosting several laundry-to-landscape greywater programs. While installing your own system can feel intimidating, Daily Acts is here to help you with our free hands-on programs and abundant resources! |
|
|
| First, you’re invited to join us at the Daily Acts office for an office-hours conversation on greywater systems. Then, sign up for our community abundance tour which includes a water-wise garden with a greywater system. Finally, join us for an installation workshop that will walk you through each step of installing your own greywater system from laundry room to mulch basin. |
|
|
| This set of programs provides a unique opportunity to get your questions about greywater answered, see what a system looks like in action, and gain hands-on experience installing a system from start to finish. We hope that you will join us at one of these upcoming events to witness the power of our daily actions.🧡 With gratitude,
Sarina Consulter
