Salvation is the free gift of God, but those who are born of the spirit will immediately begin to show forth the fruits of the spirit in loving service to their fellow creatures. Fruits of the divine spirit... yielded in the lives of spirit-born and God-knowing mortals are: loving service, unselfish devotion, courageous loyalty, sincere fairness, enlightened honesty, undying hope, confiding trust, merciful ministry, unfailing goodness, forgiving tolerance, and enduring peace.

Changing Public Policy to Restore Water Worldwide + Coppice Agroforestry Webinars

Hey Folks,

I wanted to share two webinars happening this week that can change the whole paradigm on drought and how we grow food. This week is all about The New Water Paradigm and Coppice Agroforestry. Though both webinars are happening at the same time, if you register, you'll see the replay in case you miss it.

May 9th, 10AM PDT, The New Water Paradigm and Public Policy

Explore the critical intersection of public policy and community-driven action in restoring the small water cycle with Martin Kováč, former Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development of the Slovak Republic and co-author of "Water for Climate Recovery - A New Water Paradigm."

In this webinar, we will explore the critical need to cultivate supportive frameworks at local, regional, national, and international levels to strengthen decentralized water cycle restoration efforts.For those that don’t know: the New Water Paradigm is a foundational work in water cycle restoration, helping to pull the puzzle pieces together into a clearer whole. You can find their publications here: Water for the Recovery of the Climate - A New Water Paradigm.

Join us to discover how collective action can revitalize the water cycle and mitigate climate impacts in this webinar.

May 9th, 10AM PDT Coppice Agroforestry Webinar with Mark Krawczyk

Come and learn the basics of cut-and-come-again forestry. Join Mark Krawczyk, author of Coppice Agroforestry and principal designer and installer of Keyline Vermont, for a deep dive into one of the most useful skills for farmers, homesteaders, and property owners—Coppice Agroforestry.

This ancestral approach to forestry provides a skill for working with pioneer species and producing pole wood, firewood, building materials, and handicraft supplies.
