hey sudo room folks,
following up on my earlier email about potentially cohosting the bay-delta
bioregional unconference on may 9th—we're having a community planning
call* today
(thursday, feb 12) at 3:00 pm PST* and would love to have sudo room
representation there!
<https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?pli=1#all/19c5054253efd65a>
*zoom registration: *
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/YDOZMmohSXqU6YPhm8JwgA
*what we'll discuss:*
-
venue decision (omni commons is one of our top options!)
-
how sudo room could plug in as a collaborator/cosponsor
-
volunteer coordination and day-of logistics
-
ways this could benefit sudo room (visibility, network building,
potential revenue share from tickets)
*quick context:* this is our biannual gathering bringing together 200-300
folks working on permaculture, mutual aid, community resilience, and
regenerative systems across the bay-delta bioregion. past events at laney
brought together richmond grows, BACE timebank, transition berkeley, and
dozens of other community orgs.
<https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?pli=1#all/19911cfbe8afd17d>
even if sudo room can't physically host at the omni (we're exploring
berkeley city college and oakstop too), we'd love to have you involved as a
collaborating organization.
<https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?pli=1#all/19911cfbe8afd17d>
*p.s. also invite you to weality check next week!* it's a casual
mixed-theme social/networking/deep-conversation gathering we do
regularly—next one's coming up soon. it's basically a vibe where
regenerative community folks, technologists, systems thinkers, and
change-makers hang out and build relationships. check
linktr.ee/eastbaypermacultureguild for dates/details!
<https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?pli=1#all/19abc488a42c5299>
no pressure if tomorrow doesn't work—happy to catch folks at the next
member meeting or async. but would love to have your input as we finalize
venue and partnership decisions in the near future!
much love,
ajay

hey sudoers!
taking off my sudo hat for a moment, and following up on the thread from
last year about adding our (east bay permaculture guild
<http://tbaypermacultureguild>) unconferences to the sudo room calendar —
we're planning our spring unconference for *saturday, may 9th* and would
love to explore cohosting or partnering with sudo room on it.
what is it?
the bay-delta bioregional regeneration unconference is an annual gathering
bringing together ~200-300 folks working on regenerative projects across
the bay-delta bioregion. it's participant-driven (think: open space
technology), focused on permaculture, mutual aid, community resilience, and
regenerative systems.
our fall'25 event was at laney college and brought together folks from
richmond grows, BACE timebank, transition berkeley, and dozens of other
community orgs. you can see details on our past events here:
https://baydelta.org/events/
what we're thinking
-
*date*: saturday, may 9, 2026
-
*venue*: we're still looking! need space for 100-300 people (ideally
near BART, indoor + outdoor options) (laney, where we did the last two, is
under construction then))
-
*partnership*: we'd love to collab with sudo room — could mean:
-
hosting at or near the omni (if space works)
-
cross-promotion to our networks
-
sudo room gets visibility as a collaborating org
-
potential for sudo room to have a table/presence/workshop track
-
funds from ticket sales could benefit sudo room
-
and/or etc..
other venues we've already reached out to:
-
Berkeley city college
-
omni (waiting to hear back)
-
trellis (but not sure if we want it in sf, else mahubay gardens would
be an option)
-
others i'm forgetting now (might reach out to Oakland Asian Cultural
Center)
*would sudo room be interested in partnering/cohosting?* even if we can't
physically host at the omni, we'd love to collaborate in other ways.
happy to hop on a call with my co-planner or chat more at the next member
meeting (2/13?) if folks are interested!
