At more than a year into fascism, it’s easy to get burned out and feels safer to stop caring.

Push back by caring out loud.
Are you planning a spring garden? Help build food resilience: donate extra seed to a seed library, grow starts or seedlings to share, or plant extra. Food resilience is mutual aid, and prices are skyrocketing. If you aren’t a gardener, do you know someone who might appreciate some help this year? Support healthy locally grown food access.
