We are planting 1,400 plants in ONE DAY! 🌱
Yes, you read that right—1,400! Join us for Hands on the Land on April 25 from 10am-2pm and help us plant on the land using the Miyawaki method. These pocket forests have been shown to build biodiversity, climate resilience, and wellbeing in communities.
We’re teaming up with Natural UrbanForests, guided by Ethan Bryson, to restore the slope next to our (soon-to-be-restored) greenhouse, along with help from Northern Paiute councilwoman Cora Phoenix-Price and Travis Andy (Yakama).
📢Our guest speaker will be Joell Jones, who is a traditional gatherer from the Yakama Nation and a Native Environmental Science student at Northwest Indian College.
🌸Our arts activity for the day will be botanical printing with Eileen Jimenez!
🪏We will provide all the tools needed to participate, along with a catered lunch by Tuesday Talaga!
