SUMMARY:From Resilience to "Thrivance" in a Collapsing World
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Jeff Crane\, Dean of the College of Arts\, Humanities & Social Sciences\, Cal Poly Humboldt\, as he explores how community farming can play a crucial role in moving past a simple focus on resilience\, mitigation\, and adaptation to one of thrivance in a time of political\, economic\, and ecological chaos. While the threats are manifold and extreme\, it is important to move past reactionary responses to working towards a better now and future\, addressing the fundamental issues and challenges that existed prior to this immediate period and will persist after\, unless action is taken. Community farming is integral to thrivance. It fosters better physical\, emotional\, psychological\, and spiritual health. It helps repair the relationship between humanity and the natural world. It creates a web of community connections\, friendships\, and reciprocity. And finally\, community farming brings joy and beauty into our lives. Certainly\, community farming is not the entire solution but\, as a site of dialogue\, it can also contribute to other needed work. Consider thrivance through community farming! Time for interactive discussion with the speaker will be provided. Please register for this talk on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1988594579920. This virtual event will use the WebEx platform. Registrants will receive a separate e-mail with WebEx connection details.  All registrants will get a link to the recording of this talk.
