F.E.A.S.T. n’ in the depth of winter. Gardens are put

to bed, the soil is resting and replenishing.

Pantries are full of

Summer’s abundance. Enjoy the long

cozy nights, and dreaming up your spring garden plan.

 

F.E.A.S.T. is a community supported & community taught sustainability education program. The program focuses on teaching positive, simple solutions to some of the largest global problems we face. Usually running as a credit class at Orcas High School, this summer it has also been open to the community. The F.E.A.S.T. program seeks to empower youth with sustainable living skills such as blacksmithing, permaculture design, wild harvesting, organic farming, animal husbandry, bee-keeping, alternative energy, mycology and more. This program’s success is  in the community and the youth.

 

Vines, leaves, roots of darkness, growing,
now you are uncurled and cover our eyes
with the edge of winter sky
leaning over us in icy stars.
Vines, leaves, roots of darkness, growing,
come with your seasons, your fullness, your end.
