A huge thank you to Eric Mayer, founder of .char, for joining REAP’s Regenerative Jobs Program as a guest teacher for a hands-on lesson in biochar 🌱🔥

We loved learning all about the magic of this simple technology that has been used by humans for millennia. Eric shared the science, process, and regenerative potential of biochar, giving participants hands-on experience and insight into how this powerful material can support healthy soils, carbon sequestration, and climate resilience.

We’re so grateful for the opportunity to learn from leaders helping build a more regenerative future 💚

Want to learn more about biochar? Check out our calendar at reapcenter.org/calendar to sign up for our 6/10 workshop!

Weekly Bonfire Potluck Series: Wednesday Evenings at REAP

Every Wednesday evening, REAP Climate Center opens its Alameda campus for the Weekly Bonfire Potluck Series: a free, donation-based gathering for food, conversation, local climate culture, and community connection.

The idea is simple: bring yourself, bring a friend, and bring something to share if you can. Some food is provided, and potluck contributions are always welcome. Come early to help cook, stay late to sit by the fire, or drop in for the part that fits your evening. The series runs after our Wednesday Open House and Volunteer Hours, creating a natural rhythm: hands-on work in the afternoon, shared food and programming in the evening. You’re welcome to come for either or both.

Browse our events and sign up at reapcenter.org/calendar.

For more information on what this series means to us you can check out our blog post at reapcenter.org/resources/blog/05182026-weekly-bonfire-potluck
