From 10am-6pm the Action Day will include hands-on projects, workshops, local perspectives, community resources, and next steps for addressing Food, Water, Housing, and Land Security.
Workshops and panel discussions will explore ways the system is operating that create dependence; building awareness on ways to regain autonomy and provide for oneself; and community resources for folks directly affected by symptoms of gentrification.
We will be focusing on building a water catchment system for the farm with practical skills like post setting, framing, light roofing, and guttering.
We will also get some practice in small-scale framing to construct a pig house. These are great projects for folks of any skill level, and will leave you with some practical takeaways.
Get your build and your farm on in the D.
A community resiliency event with a rolling lunch lovingly provided by local volunteers.
Come as you are, bring your people.
