10% of our goal!

As we continue to teach people how to sequester carbon cheaply, efficiently and forever, we often overlook the fact that many either don't care or are frozen by their fear of the future. I have written often about how the oligarchs seek to turn our heads away from the truth, or perpetrate vast lies to get us to allow them to continue to rule us. Luckily, more and more people are waking up and realizing that it is the vast majority who hold the power to make change come. This has been somthing that has been talked about for decades. when the Hippies said, the people need to lead, then the leaders will have no choice but to follow, that's exactly what they meant. The status quo is struggling, we have them unsteady. Why, just the other day, I saw a sign that said, "Long-haired freaky people, please apply."
Our group just got a contribution from an anonymous donor of over five thousand dolars that will help us to buy land upon which we will continue teaching skills needed to build a sustainable culture. This puts us over 10% of the way toward our funding goals. We are continuing to seek a large enough acreage to hold classes, create demonstration plots for resoration agriculture and to provide a working habitat restoration project where people can come to learn in a hands-on way what they need to know to replicate our success. We have had more than a dozen teachers express a desire to teach at our facility and to share such diverse skills as wildcrafting herbs, foraging for wild edible plants, animal husbandry, building soil carbon, putting up the harvest for lean times natural home building and we will also continue taking people for the annual maple sugar harvest and wild rice encampment. Additionally, we have skilled tradespeople who have been building efficiency into our housing stock, reducing the overall consumption of resources and energy, all of which allow homeowners to live better for less. Even though we are saving up for a large land purchase, we continue to invest in the capabilities of our group to educate more people faster and create bigger impact with what resources we have available. Just last month, we got a larger biochar kiln that exponentially increases the amount of carbon we can sequester, allowing us to create enough biochar to amend larger acreages faster. we have already committed to taking it on the road to several private landholdings,to sequester carbon there, but also to set up at public demonstrations across the state where dozens of individuals can learn about the power of this ancient technology. The faster we grow, the faster we increase our effectiveness. As we continue to reach out, spreading the network of people who are excited about our work, the faster we seem to get invitations to present our work to others for the first time. Those contacts in turn lead to even more people hearing about what we do for the first time. We have also mad einroads with several larger groups and people involved with nation-wide and world-wide efforts to change course. It is not too late, but we must all learn the new rules, the old strategies that worked and renew our commitment to one another and the planet. Sticking our heads in the sane will not inspire or affect change.
