Mathew Trumm is a proponent of permaculture design and sustainable living. Here he poses with a chainsaw in front of an oak tree stump. The beautiful old oak tree fell in January 2015 in Concord, CA during a fierce storm in the midst of one of the worst droughts in California's recorded history. California needs to come up with real solutions to the problems caused by drought. Mr Trumm teaches members of his community about sustainable use of water and other natural resources in the garden at the Berry Creek Community Park in Berry Creek, CA. He also helped renew the garden at the local elementary school near the park.
