Meeting / Gathering

A day of education, celebration, and dialogue, this 4th annual symposium intends to acknowledge, celebrate and lift up leaders who are women-identified, trans, queer, Indigenous, Black, people of color, and whose identities intersect and transcend these categories. All humans are welcome to participate. The day will focus on nurturing connections to strengthen our collective movement through inter-generational dialogue weaving together policy, advocacy, justice, art, and farming.

Hosted at Red H Farm at the Permaculture Skills Center.

Come out to Singing Creek Farm, home of Marjory House, for the Summer meeting and Summer Preparation Making with the Oregon Biodynamic Group.

We will be making the BD 501 and 502 and 507 preparations. We are increasing the amount of preparation 502 that we make, so bring Yarrow Blossoms if you are able to! This will be a great meeting to learn more about the intricacies of the Preparations while getting hands-on experience with other area farmers and growers.

Bring a Potluck Dish for lunch and we'll see you there!
