Tilth Alliance has just announced its search for an Executive Director. The recent merger of three organizations, Tilth Producers, Seattle Tilth and Cascade Harvest Coalition, and subsequent leadership changes, have led the Board of Directors to examine and re-define the Alliance's strategic direction. They are seeking an experienced, visionary and passionate leader who will work collaboratively ... See More

Native Soil Farm’s Billie Washington shared a link for a fundraiser to help Leon Charger, last of his line, to visit his 80 year old brother in hospice care. Charger writes:  

My name is Leon Charger.  My Lakota name as given to me by Arvol Looking Horse is TaTanka A Wi Ca Ku (Brings Back Buffalo). I am full blood Lakota/Dakota descendant of Chief Martin Charger &  the Fools Soldiers Band of Cheyenne River, South Dakota. My  great grandfather was Chief Martin Charger. I am the youngest of the remaining males in the Charger lineage. I have two living  older brothers. Melvin Charger and Norman Charger.

My oldest living brother Melvin Charger who has been blind since a child from an accident , has recently become progressively ill and is now in hospice care in Minnesota. He is 80 yrs old. Throughout the years I had only three opportunities to visit him in my life. Now, due to his weakening heart and a progressive lung cancer, in the words of those close to Melvin and his physicians, he soon will make his journey home...

Charger’s GoFundMe page, titled One Last Visit to See My Brother, includes video clips & information on travel expenses. Help him reach his goal & his brother’s side.

Summer Camps Coordinator Annie Jones invites:                               
Toledo Friends! Want to be involved in making summer adventure camps magical and awesome for kids in our community? Here’s how you can help:
There are 4 kids signed up for camps who are in need of partial scholarships and one in need of a full scholarship. Can you help?
We need a few more guest volunteers Tuesdays and Wednesdays each week in July to come read a script/story to the kids at 1:30-3 or assist with a craft or field game (supplies and instructions provided) from 3-3:30. Can you help?
See Details here

The supportive response of this community last summer is the reason MAP was able to get rolling and provide summer and after school programs for so many kids throughout the year, including those in financial need! Let’s do it again - this time we’re giving kids the chance to experience a taste of real summer adventure camp, getting outside, active, and engaged with their world in meaningful ways, learning lots while having fun and making memories!
Thanks in advance.
