May 3-4: Edible Forest Garden to be Planted at 3517 - 14th Ave. NW, Olympia. You are invited to help plant fruit and nut trees and berry bushes then sheet mulch the lawn by putting down cardboard and wood chips to remove the grass. Edible Forest Gardens consist of three main layers, with fruit and nut trees as the upper canopy, berries and other edible bushes as the middle layer and perennial vegetables and fruits as the ground cover. They are organic, no-till and pull carbon from the atmosphere and hold it to become a carbon sink in your yard. Help make our community more sustainable and food secure. We'll be there 10 am to 4 pm each day - join us for the day or come by when you can. For more information contact: Pat Rasmussen - Phone 509-669-1549 - E-mail [email protected] http://www.oly-wa.us/edibleforestgardens

The Global Climate Convergence for People, Planet and Peace over Profit is an education and direct action campaign beginning this spring with “10 Days to Change Course” running from Earth Day to May Day.
Together we can harness the transformative power we already possess as a thousand separate movements for justice, rising up against the global assault on our shared economy, ecology, peace and democracy. The accelerating climate disaster, which threatens to unravel civilization as soon as 2050, intensifies all of these struggles and creates new urgency for collaboration.
Clearly the time for unified action is NOW.
The Convergence creates a unifying call for a solution as big as the crisis barreling down on us – an emergency Green Economic Transformation through a Global Green New Deal including universal jobs, health care, education, food and housing security, economic and political democracy, demilitarization, an end to deportations, and 100% clean renewable energy by 2030.
The power is yours!
