tl;dr: happy solstice — we are not designed to met tl;dr: happy solstice
—
we are not designed to metabolize the gut-wrenching heart-excavating earth-shattering absolute mind-warping devastation of immeasurable lives in our communities and neighborhoods and around the world being extinguished every single day. not just people but also the animals. not just the animals but also the trees. not just the trees but also the land. not just the land but also the sky and winds and waters. not just today but yesterday and yesterday’s yesterday, and tomorrow too if we continue to deem this way of life acceptable.

settlers have burned thousands of olives trees in the West Bank since the beginning of this month. over 800,000 olive trees have been razed in Palestine since 1967. recently the photos of burning olive groves have brought me to my knees, just like stories of infants freezing to death in Gaza, just like hearing that an unhoused friend froze to death in Oakland, just like pictures of Vietnamese children running naked while being burnt by u.s. dropped napalm, just like videos of ice agents tearing families apart, just like just like just like.

just like a clip of the first salmon through the Klamath river after the removal of the Iron Gate Dam. just like images of Bangladeshi students storming the prime minister’s palace. just like the meeting of a cat with his human as he returns to northern Gaza. just like the dancing of the dabke at Alcatraz as the sun is rising. just like an elder who grew up in the apartments coming back to the farm for the first time in years. just like a sunset at the beach, the glory of an alpine lake, the circling of the hawks overhead, the winter rains after a dry spell.

the world only changes when we change too. the world only changes when we change first. here, portraits of some core land stewards whose care and attention and commitment to mutual reciprocity and collective freedom have changed alemany and ourselves, all for the better.

Fungi on the Farm Workshop

Sun Dec 21st, 10 am - 12 pm 
Instructor: J.R. Blair
This is an IN-PERSON WORKSHOP at Alemany Farm.

Join J.R. Blair for a fungal exploration of the Farm. We will seek out mushrooms and other kinds of visible manifestations of fungi, such as rusts and lichens. This will serve as an introduction to the life cycles of these fascinating organisms. In addition, we will discuss the various ecological roles that fungi play in the environment, particularly as they apply to the Farm.

J.R. Blair received his Bachelor’s degree at the Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington and his Master’s degree at San Francisco State University in 1999 studying with the accomplished mycologist, Dr. Dennis Desjardin. His thesis was Fungi Associated with Arctostaphylos in Northern California. Since that time he has been an active member of the Mycological Society of San Francisco. He served a two-year term as President and was their Fungus Fair chairperson for five years. He has taught mushroom identification workshops for mycological societies and outdoor education programs for many years. He was a lecturer of biology at SFSU for 21 years and the director of the University’s Sierra Nevada Field Campus for 12 years until his retirement in December 2022.

they work here still! 
sut is on a meandering path to rebuild food and medicinal systems to feed/heal the Land + Ocean and us, and everything in between us and the Ocean + Land! and also they want to learn how to literally rebuild anything that’s falling apart.

they will probably try to tell you that herbs work and make sure you take tinctures and have your ginger. and between off key vocal outbursts they will probably ask you if you have anything to share about what you’re eating lately.
