To Sean Dreiling, e3 President, Fall-Spring 2013-2014,
Looking forward to working with you and e3's more closely in the new semester and year. I have been enjoying my relationship as "Uncle Leslie" to my Niece Eva L Becker Senior High School Classes at Hamilton High School in Los Angeles. A number of times a year, I give pep talks (and classes) and plant dreams with the students. The experience has been very rewarding. I want to expand my role as Uncle Leslie to the e3's and support this outstanding SDSU Advocacy group as an advisor--as Your Enchanted Gardener. My experiences advocating for on campus issues go back to my own time in college during the late 60's and early 70's. As a Popular full time Blogger, I have many contacts within the Natural Product Industry that may be useful, I want to encourage you to join my Campaign To Grow A Healthier Pizza here on Facebook and read the beginning of a Plant Your Dream Blog where I have started to gather my ideas for e3's. http://curezone.com/blogs/fm.asp?i=2061403
I am Prepping for a trip to Los Angeles now, and when we all have time, I would like to invite you and other e3's to visit our Enchanted Garden Intentional Community--a 1/3 acre land within walking distance of SDSU. It is a nature retreat that welcomes your youth and enthusiasm, and has much to teach about keeping our beat with nature.--Leslie Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener, May 3, 2013.
New Leadership of the e3's Elected and Appointments May 1, 2013
GROUP SHOT OF THE e3's MAY 1, 2013
e3's--Environment-Business-society May 1, 2013. Elections and appointments to leadership were held during this, the last general meeting of the year.
Made contact with two new e3's who will be active in the new semester. One is the recruiter, Rachel Famero, and the other, Sean Dreiling, the new e3 President.

Last Week was Earth Week at SDSU and I visited nearby Campus at least three Times during the Week
I learned some basics so I will have more ease coming to campus. I met Officer Luna of the Campus Parking Office. I am clear now that when I buy a parking ticket for a number of hours, I am O.K. to park in the handicap spots at various places on campus. There is one handicap spot right next to the bungalow where the e3's have their weekly meetings during the year. They also have weekly exec meetings on Mondays. I would like to attend some of these meetings during the year.
There is a lovely array of special herbs and trees right where I park in view of the building where nutrition is taught, near the bungalow style classrooms where they have the regular Thursday meeting that begins at 5 pm. I highly recommend that students at SDSU join the e3's.
I will Play a Bigger Role on Campus Next Year in my role as Uncle Leslie, Your Enchanted Gardener
I have been witness to some of the marvelous achievements that the members of the e3's have accomplished at SDSU for more than five years. Some of these achievements are detailed below in this Plant Your Dream Blog.
At the last regular meeting of the year, May 1, the e3's had elections. Gio, the outgoing president, led the meeting. He introduced me as the best supporter of the e3's. That felt nice. The teens gave me a good applause.
I gave a pep talk at the end of the meeting, and then took a group picture.
Here is the group shot
Accomplishments of the e3's I have Witnessed
I named some of these acccomplishments in my Pep Talk May 1 that closed out the meeting:
The SDSU FARMER's MARKET, THURSDAYS-10 AM-3 PM
e3's have been instrumental in the creation of the on-campus Farmers' Market. I was there at the beginning when Matt Nelson instigated this Farmer's Market with the help of others. That was a very spirited group of e3's that year.
That late Spring we had a gathering here at the home I share with others called the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community. The AS President and some of the e3's came over. Jessica
e3's were also instrumental in a Bike Path on Campus. A few years before I remember one of my housemates getting into an incident with the police and being ticketed for riding a bike on or near campus. That is no longer the case.
LEED CERTIFIED STUDENT uniion BUILDING IS IN THE WORKS AT SDSU
e3's were instrumental in the creation of the Leed Certified New Student uniion building that is now under construction.
Photos of the construction site
I want to go over to campus and take some shots. In the years to come, this construction will be history. Those shots will be important.
THE CULTIVATING FOOD JUSTICE CONFERENCE OF 2010
Members of 3's were also very involved in the creation of the Cultivating Food Justice two day conference that was help on campus. This was a major event for me. Because of that event, I started to get a feel for the landscape and some of the roads within the campus. I planted seeds on campus.
Scripps Cottage
Beautiful photo of Scripps Cottage is here:

Photo of Scripps Cottage area at SDSU. This area already has ponds and running water. It is suited for aquaponics and aeroponics as well as container gardens.
Through being on campus for the Cultivating Food Justice Conference, I started to take delight in the Scripps Cottage area. There are lovely ponds here with very beautiful landscape. There are turtles in the ponds.
Scripps Cottage could be a site for an Aquaponics system.
That area could have an aquaponics system and a some aeroponic Tower Gardens. That area could also have some managed small container gardener of organic food.
VISIONS FOR e3's
VIsiting and Participating in the Growth of the the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community, a 1/3 acre natural retreat near SDSU
Associated Student Leaders and e3s visited the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community in this photo 200X. Our Natural Retreat is within walking distance of SDSU
I would like to see an annual event where new leaders and old come together on campus.. I would like to see events held here at the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community where students can garden and interact with our community members who are skilled in nature studies.
More Food Growing on Campus and Support for Plant Care here at the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community
This is a photo of SDSU Grounds keeper Gabe Mitchell. He maintains an area near the Garden Gnomes Garden and Hepner Hall at SDSU. Gabe also tends the orchard at Wild Willow Farm and Education Center.
More to come on this theme later...
Support for Fair Trade and Fair Trade Products at SDSU will Grow
During Earthweek 2013 I was inspired to see the students taking a stand for Fair Trade on Campus. Ben and Jerry Ice Cream, a company that uses Fair Trade, gave samples on campus. Students signed petitions for Fair Trade.
This was one of the products I support that I found on the Ben and Jerry's Table. This is a Fair Trade Tea from Traditional Medicinals, Drake Sadler's Company. Dr. Bronner's Magic Soap is a big supporter of Fair Trade. I want to see the students become more aware of Fair Trade and the products that support this evolutionary shift toward local, sustainable, fairness toward the grower, toward the land, toward the eater. I see Fair Trade expanding to include support for organic growing of food, and Aeroponic growing of food to meet our emergency food crisis.
Ben and Jerry at SDSU--Fair Trade on the SDSU Campus--was being introduced.
Supporting the e3 Legacy through Events and Photos
This is a photo of current and previous e3 Grads at the 2013 Business Fair held during Earthweek 2013. Tara Kelly, who played a role in the Leed Platinum Building, and Matt Nelson, creator of the SDSU Farmers' Market, are among those in the photo
.
The history of the e3's on campus is a rich legacy of advocacy. I see and seed that there be annual events to draw back the e3 grads to campus and have them participate in the transition of current e3's into the workforce, including sustainability jobs in San Diego in becoming one of the nation's lead environmental cities. Photos I take can be a part of recording this legacy.
MORE FRUIT BEARING TREES AT SDSU AND IN THE SDSU NEIGHBORHOOD
Gabe Mitchell, a grounds keeper at SDSU with Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener at Wild Willow Farm & Educational Center, April 27, 2013. I believe that we will look back ten years from now and see more fruit bearing trees at SDSU and in the local neighborhood. Why now begin now with the planting of a tree in honor of outgoing and incoming e3 leadership? Let us begin.
SUPPORT FOR THE CAMPAIGN TO GROW A HEALTHIER PIZZA AND ITS MANDATE TO SEE 1/2 MORE PEOPLE GROWING FOOD IN THE TOWER OF PIZZA (TOWER GARDEN TM) AND IN CONTAINERS
RELATED BLOG ABOUT THE TOWER GARDEN
I attended the Juice Plus+ Leadership conference in Long Beach in April 2013. I was very inspired to attend a meeting of the Y Generation who were mission driven and earning a supplemental and substantial income through individual franchises selling this excellent nutritional product. The company mandate is "Grow Your Own Food!" The Tower Garden is an way for many more people to start gaining familiarity with food growing in this vertical growing system. I would like to see this growing system, and container gardening further introduced at SDSU. During the Cultivating Food Justice Conference of 2010 at SDSU, I co-taught a class with Yael Zaidman on container gardening.

IMPROVED RELATIONS WITH OUR NEIGHBORS ALONG THE RIM OF THE AROSA CANYON
Jane Westfall, intern with Canyonlands, was one of the delightful students I met during Earthweek at SDSU. She spoke about her coming over to the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community. There is work to do with neighbor relations with the Arosa Canyon.
This is a vision I carry. We have a stand of Arundo Donax that is the subject of a big discourse on how we manage what we call invasive species. I met Jane Westfall and other interns during Earthweek 2013 at SDSU. I look forward to this acquaintanceship developing. Jane works as an intern for Canyonlands.

Hi, Erin, having fond memories of you from your e3 days at SDSU and the time you and others came over to the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community. I am looking forward to playing a bigger role with the e3s starting with this summer. Here is a Plant Your Dream Blog I started to write. I am glad to catch up with your activities here on your page.

Erica, thinking back to the time when you came over to the Enchanted Garden Intentional Community. You climbed up the ladder and picked the ripe blackberries that were growing through the orange tree. Look forward to find those photos! I am looking forward to playing a bigger role with the e3's at SDSU starting with inviting some of the new leaders over to our home this summer. Glad that you find a place in San Diego to live. --Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener.
