@serialooie - thx for posting.

“Returning land to Indigenous care is healing for us & healing for the land,” says Corrina Gould, co-founder of Sogorea Te’ Land Trust and tribal chairperson of the Confederated Villages of Lisjan. “Working together with Movement Generation to create visions and commitments into the next generations allows us to reimagine relationships to this land and multiply the possibilities of our work.”

What did the beaver say about all that fast moving snowmelt water?

Dam it. 🦫

[Video is of a crude stick and rock dam that is slowing down some snowmelt water moving through our valley’s creek. Small streams and creeks are really the last chance to slow the fast moving snowmelt down and filter out some of the sediment, runoff, and nitrates before these waters make it to rivers and then oceans.]

Another day, another check dam.

Water naturally accumulates in valleys as it flows downslope, but fast moving water cannot be utilized by the plants & animals that need it.

#CheckDams are a simple way to slow down water so that the soil has a chance to utilize the moisture before it makes its way to streams & rivers.

Check dams can be made from whatever materials are available but I usually use rocks b/c that’s what we have an abundance of.

In 2021, my partner and I bought some very neglected farmland in #WesternColorado and moved from Houston to begin our journey in #landStewardship and #homesteading

Our farm is currently home to:
🦆 12 ducks
🐓 14 chickens
🐕‍🦺 1 #borderCollie
🐈 2 #barncats
👨🏼‍🌾👩🏼‍🌾 2 adult humans + 🙍🏼‍♂️1 homeschooled child (who is 10-ish) that splits his time between here and Texas.
🦌🦃🐍🐝 lots and lots of wildlife

Before we moved from Texas, I was an IT freelancer but I have completely retired from IT and am a full time #farmwife responsible for 105 acres of high desert land. I'm still very new to farming, #homesteading, and #animalHusbandry, but I've been #gardening and #growingThings for a very long time and I feel like #landStewardship is something I was meant to do. Part of the beauty of the journey I'm on is unlocking the #ancestralKnowledge that capitalism & colonialism has stolen from us.

Only an hour to go to fund this #regenerative #landstewardship #art and #ecology project in Serbia. This is an all-or-nothing Kickstarter that's half-funded. Effectively what that means is that people have already put up a match to anything you pledge. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/earthcallsresidency/earth-calls-art-and-ecology-residency-a-year-of-creating
