Community Solutions taking place at UrbanTilth Farm
Our Sol2Sol week is being held down by local organizations in occupied Ohlone Territory (the San Francisco Bay Area) and is rooted in the work of our host communities.
On September 9th, ITR members, allies, and friends will be joining our local hosts in local tours. This day will highlight local frontline communities, their struggles and work to defend against the compounded impacts of climate capitalism.
We will start the day in ceremony and training at the Berkeley Shellmound Memorial, led by our Ohlone hosts and comrades Indian People Organizing for Change. We will then move to closed local tours, hosted by It Takes Roots local partners. Tours will make stops in Richmond, Chinatown, and Oakland/Bayview areas. Sign-up for tours is now closed.
Participants will also have the opportunity to create radical resistance art at a art build at the Greenpeace Oakland Warehouse, or get their hands dirty and skillshare around urban farming, food sovereignty, reclaiming public lands, medicine making, reclaiming our health, and more at Hummingbird Farm with PODER.
We also welcome you to join us at the closing New Moon Ceremony at Cupid’s Span.
