Alrighty then! I managed to cover everything I planned on covering (that doesn't always happen). Some cool diverting subjects as well (sometimes I just go with the flow).

#SolarPunkSunday #DIY #SewYourOwn #MendYourOwn #SewingMachines #BuildingCommunity

So, one of the topics for this week's #SolarPunkSunday is #ticks! I came across some interesting #DIY stuff (and more uses for #DuctTape [#DuckTape] -- which is something most #Mainahs have on hand).

Also, #MaineStateParks just announced some programs and special events. I also came across some recipes for #BlackBeans and #BlueCorn (and how to process it), making one's own #Lime and #CalciumCarbonate, and articles about #IndigenousFood and #FoodSovereignty.

And of course, some upcoming events, including #RepairCafes! I hope you'll join us and feel free to use the hashtag #SolarPunkSunday! It's all about #BuildingCommunity and #SharingIdeas!

The architect making America’s food system legible

As you're building a community, sometimes it's not the people you find, but the people they know.

I was walking my dog in the yard this evening and I saw my neighbor hesitantly walking out of his driveway. He took a few steps toward my neighbor across the street's house, but then turned back. Then he slowly walked over to me. He explained that he hadn't received his food stamps this month. His wife had just started a job at Dollar Tree and he was waiting on a background check to start with Dollar General. But they had no food. They hadn't eaten at all today.

I told him I didn't have much cash but he was welcome to what I had. He said he really would rather have food. So I told him to come on over. I don't have much but I gave him some chicken and half of the leftovers from my meal tonight. He was very appreciative. Tomorrow my friend is making up a box of food to bring to them.

Things are going to get bad this summer. Really bad. If we don't take care of each other nobody is going to. So get to know your neighbors. Build up your community. Share food. Share knowledge. Share supplies. We keep us safe.

Spent some time at the #CommunityGarden today. Planted some #BlackBeans and #Potatoes, and pulled up some weeds (the flowers should be popping up after all that rain). Had a cool conversation with my neighbor who is a selectboard member and who helped get the garden going again, and told him what a great job he is doing. I mean, #composters, #rainbarrels, making the #CommunityCenter an #EmergencyShelter, supporting #DatacenterMoratoriums and #SmartGrowth. What more could one ask for in a town rep!

So, two of the candidates running for our town's selectboard have teamed up. They emphasize #CriticalThinkingSkills , #OpenSpaces , #CommunityGardens , and #ResponsibleGrowth . Guess who is getting my vote! (And one is the selectboard member neighbor who helped start up the #CommunityGarden and getting #Composters and #Rainbarrels for our town).
