@AimeTim 1/6 It was John Moriarty, a gardener at the Carmelite priory in Boars Hill, Oxford, who declared, "Jesus is our hero of integration." As he interprets it, the deep ecology of peacemaking effects and requires an integral, intra-realm response to a symbiotic eco-cultural challenge.

Copy of tweet here: 1/ The Heaven of Earth, actualized? A unified, bio-cultural simultaneity. Wendell Berry: “You cannot save the land apart from the people, or the people apart from the land.” Integral ecology in practice, then? The Resurrection Body of our salvation, made. "Praying is not enough."

3/ Don't forget today's noon PST briefing on #PNW #wintercropping. As usual, I suspect we'll devote part of our workshop to consideration of common efforts to effectively address the local challenge of global structures of power enfleshed, literally, in the fabric of life itself.

Saturday, June 10, 1.00 p.m. - 3.00 p.m. Cottage Grove Public Library 700 E Gibbs Ave, Cottage Grove, OR 97424 Yes, it’s early! But mid-to-late June is when experienced local farmers and gardeners seed the great majority of vegetable crops feeding us through winter. Please join us for a workshop, conversation and seed exchange focused on our 'longest harvest season of the year’. We’ll be talking crops, timing, tactics, slugs and a whole lot more. Our instructors, Andrew Still of Adaptive Seeds, and Nick Routledge of the Agrarian Sharing Network, have extensive experience raising field and greenhouse crops into the October-through-May harvest-window. They have been teaching winter cropping for PNW farmers and gardeners since 2003.
