Go Green
Give your group a Santa Barbara-style seminar in global environmental issues and how we can all reduce our personal "footprints" on the environment. The greensantabarbara.com website is full of ideas and resources including tours of local green buildings, environmental and recycled art, sustainable agriculture, biodynamically grown wines, nature preserves, ecotourism activities, "green" hotels, and tips on how to eat like a "locavore."
- Tap into your group's artistic side with an assemblage competition at Art From Scrap.
- Spend the afternoon touring Fairview Gardens Farm, the oldest organic farm in Southern California (now preserved as an agricultural easement), and arrange for a local chef to conduct a cooking class on-site featuring seasonal ingredients.
- Take your group on a guided hike along the Bill Wallace Trail on the untouched Gaviota Coast and arrange a waste-free picnic to enjoy while looking out over the Pacific.
