The Savannah River Group
Serving Augusta since 1981
Our members are busy in many area, from conservation to programs designed to educate the public.
Many of our members are active in local Adopt-A-Stream and GET-The-Dirt-Out programs.
In the past, we've hosted the manager for Augusta Locally Grown. Jan Perry explained their operations and the importance
of buying locally and buying organic foods.
We also featured member Larry Coburn, who spoke on his experienced working with American Indian tribes. He also
displayed Indian art and crafts.
Beekeeping and community gardening are becoming more and more popular as part of sustainable living. In a recent meeting,
Conservation Chair Denice Traina told a packed house about her experiences getting started in bee-keeping and organizing
a community gargen in the Harrisburg (old mill town) section of Augusta.
April is our birthday month. Hey Sierrans, we want you to know we have been serving and enlightening the Augusta area since 1981.
We have the traditional ice cream and cake, but these, like most of our meeting refreshments, will be ORGANIC! We try to practice
what we preach, including no use of styrofoam and plastics.
