We will be founding and fostering the Pagan Master Gardeners Guild as part of our first year of service.

My initial ideas follow. The will be discussed and bettered by the Dun:

Pagan Master Gardeners must demonstrate an initiative that meets the following conditions:

1. know ~ demonstrate by 3rd party certification or personal gardening demonstration
2. educate ~ the public by demonstration and lectures, preferably hands-on workshops
3. create ~ a publicly viewable and seasonally sustainable food/herb garden within an approximately 100 square-foot space that otherwise would not be used for this purpose, and/or the use of locally viable herbs in enhancing a sustainable lifestyle
4. acknowledge ~ to the public, by verbal or written reference, the contribution of pagan community to the garden and/or workshops. This does NOT mean that we proselytize. It could be as simple as a Pentacle symbol

Dùn Alt will present itself to the public to start the process of recruiting for the founding group on Saturday, September 25th, 2010 at the Blackberry Circle public Mabon ritual.

We invite you to listen to our presentation and to ask any and all questions you wish to ask. We will have a copy of our founding Charter available for review onsite, as well as flyers about this new social order.
