About the event
Dear Friends in Farming and Gardening,
We are excited to invite you to the FARMERS’ PEOPLES ASSEMBLY, a new group for food growers who want to share agricultural knowledge, find ways forward, and adapt to the climate chaos challenging our ability to grow food.
August 22 and August 28 at 7PM Central (19:00 CDT)= best timing for USA and Australia
August 29 7AM Central (7:00 CDT)= best timing India, USA
August 29 noon Central (12:00 CDT)= best timing for Europe, Africa, USA
The FARMERS' ASSEMBLY is creating a new space for important conversations and sharing about the things we farmers find the most important — the aliveness of the soil, the health of our crops and animals, and the health of our families and communities.
The facilitation model for the FARMERS' ASSEMBLY is a prototype for creating a new container and a new way of listening, learning, and sharing from the heart and the body. We are applying the U-process and a modified group case clinic model, as designed by the Presencing Institute and researchers at MIT.
We only have a small window of time to affect change and transform ‘Get Big or Get Out’ into a ‘Go Local or Die’ philosophy of agriculture.
Please join us to share Farmer Wisdom that will help us adapt to the coming climate breakdown- protecting our families, our farms, our soils, and our communities in the process.
With Hope,
