The Moment ~ by Margaret Atwood.
The moment when, after many years
of hard work and a long voyage
you stand in the centre of your room,
house, half-acre, square mile, island, country,
knowing at last how you got there,
and say, I own this,
is the same moment when the trees unloose
their soft arms from around you,
the birds take back their language,
the cliffs fissure and collapse,
the air moves back from you like a wave
and you can't breathe.
No, they whisper. You own nothing.
You were a visitor, time after time
climbing the hill, planting the flag, proclaiming.
We never belonged to you.
You never found us.
It was always the other way round.

You are invited! We are so excited for the first Regenerate Cascadia Landscape Showcase, happening Thursday, February 5th and and Friday February 6th, from 12-2pm.

Sign up here:
Day One: https://luma.com/3lcakuk4
Day Two: https://luma.com/t93yqfjb

In September, Regenerate Cascadia launched their Landscape Hub Cultivator, a year long pilot to grow an aligned bioregional network and funding strategy in the Cascadia bioregion, rooted in work happening in the landscape, and led by those doing it.

For the past three months, 40 stewards in 10 landscapes (Greater Victoria, Fraser Lowlands, Mt. Olympus, Whatcom, Skagit, Whidbey, Vashon, Duwamish River Valley, Gorge and South Willamette Valley) have joined us for weekly sessions, presentations and gatherings as the first part of a year-long Landscape Hub Cultivator pilot.

To celebrate the end of our first phase, we are inviting everyone to join us for a Landscape Showcase, to come meet, see and learn more about the incredible diversity and wealth of knowledge, wisdom and dedication being held by this growing network.

Day One: Thursday, Feb 5, 12-2pm | Duwamish River Valley, The Gorge, Whidbey Island, Greater Victoria, Fraser Lowland | Register: https://luma.com/3lcakuk4

Day Two: Friday, Feb 6, 12-2pm | Skagit, Whatcom, South Willamette Valley, Vashon, Mt. Olympus | Register: https://luma.com/t93yqfjb

Please feel free to sign up for both sessions. Recordings of each will be emailed to participants following the event.

What is Regenerate Cascadia?
Regenerate Cascadia is a nonprofit program we launched in 2023 after an activation tour around the Salish Sea and Willamette Valley. Our goal is to connect people together within landscapes and to see people resourced and supported in the work they are doing. Learn more at

Each event will be 2 hours, plus time for Q&A, and feature presentations from five groups. Whether or not you can make it- sign up to register, and recordings will be emailed after the event.

We would be honored to have you join us.

"The shortest day has passed, and whatever
nastiness of weather we may look forward to
in January and February, at least we notice that
the days are getting longer. Minute by minute
they lengthen out. It takes some weeks
before we become aware of the change.
It is imperceptible even as the growth of a child,
as you watch it day by day, until the moment comes
when with a start of delighted surprise we realize
that we can stay out of doors in a
twilight lasting for another quarter
of a precious hour."
~ Vita Sackville-West

The raking season is nearly complete, but we still need your help! At this time, we have raked over 40 miles in Forest Park and Marquam Nature Park. We have two work parties left in the season, and we could really use your help to fill out these events and end the season on a strong note.

As a bonus, for those of you who made a resolution to go outside more volunteering with us allows you to do so while also giving back to your community!

To find all of our upcoming events, click the link in the comments. Hope to see you on the trails!

Happy New Year's Eve! 🐰🐰🐰
And the people stayed home.
And read books and listened, and rested and exercised,
and made art and played games,
and learned new ways of being and were still.
And listened more deeply.
Some meditated, some prayed, some danced.
Some met their shadows.
And the people began to think differently.
And the people healed.
And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, mindless and heartless ways the earth began to heal.
And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again,
they grieved their losses, and made new choices,
and dreamed new images,
and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully,
as they had been healed.
Poem: 'And the People Stayed Home' by Kitty O’Meara
Artist: Wendy Andrews (Rabbit over moon)
💚 (Have fun tonight! ...and remember to say 'rabbit, rabbit, rabbit' when first you wake, to usher in a joyful new year).
🐇🐇🐇Lets you and me, plant the seeds of a better year to come!
