On Saturday May 7, 2016, Transition Palo Alto volunteers got together and tabled at the Palo Alto May Fete and Parade in spite of the impending rain. It was a great event and many children enjoyed guessing the vegetable hidden in paper bags using only their sense of touch or smell. Others planted seeds; amaranth, fava or pumpkin, in recyclable containers which would otherwise have gone in the trash. Unfortunately things were cut short by a downpour at noon but we’re happy to say that the skies held out long enough for a fun morning and a very heavily attended community event.
