Hau Mitakuyepi (hello, my relatives), We are sounding an alarm from Minneapolis. The current situation we are experiencing is detrimental to our safety and wellbeing, and is already having a chilling effect on the entire American food system. We are calling on all food businesses, restaurant owners,...

I believe this

"The way we see the world shapes
the way we treat it. If a mountain
is a deity, not a pile of ore;
if a river is one of the veins of the
land, not potential irrigation water;
if a forest is a sacred grove, not timber;
if other species are our
biological kin, not resources;
or if the planet is our mother,
not an opportunity - then we will
treat each one with greater respect.
That is the challenge, to look at the
world from a different perspective."

Here we go around the circle again. It’s hard to keep going in the face of it all. And as insignificant as they may seem, there’s hope in restoring those patches of this Mother Earth under our care. It may not seem like much… but if millions of us did this work, it sure as hell restores a lot more hope than electric cars or recycling plastic.
So give what you can back to her. Restore her native plant communities, her clothing of choice, her sovereignty.
Build an Ark, not a garden. Set her free from the chains of colonisation we have imposed upon her, patch by patch
It’s up to us.

Do what you can….
Focus on the piece of the planet under your care.
We can only help our own patch. Share it with the forgotten ones.
It may not seem like much in the face of the greed and destruction we are facing into once again. However, if millions of us all do this work, then we are starting a fire of hope that cannot be quenched.
We are the ARK.
We are the Hope she has been waiting for.
You are the needle. Native plants are the thread.
