Permatours cob oven build at Farming Falmouth, Kinship Earth's Flow Funding, & the Planetary Party
Returning home to Southern VT with Eslerh Oreste of Micelio Media after a gathering in Cape Cod where Permatours & crew built a cob oven at a homestead tended by members of Farming Falmouth - Nina & Jenny. 🌊🛖This land is part of a network of community gardens that grow organic food for local families facing food insecurity. 🌱🍅 Now, w/ this oven, they’ll be able to turn what they grow onsite into fresh pizzas & other nourishing meals—seed to table. 🥗🍕
Permatours supports communities through hands-on permaculture action, natural building, & educational events. We co-create regen infrastructure that meets real needs & brings people together through learning & service. 🌳🏡 To help fuel our 5th season, we invite you to donate here - givebutter.com/permatours 🙏💸
In this video I also speak to Nina’s work as a Flow Funder w/ Kinship Earth - where I serve as Exec. Dir. 💰✨🌈
Kinship Earth moves money directly to grassroots change-makers through a model called Flow Funding - trusting local leaders with unrestricted grants to flow in support what’s needed in their communities and ecosystems. 💸🌊🌞
As a Flow Funder Nina deployed funds to support Farming Falmouth ‘s service garden - resourcing those who are already regenerating land, feeding their neighbors, & creating solutions rooted in love. ♥️
This work is also inspiring a vision & idea dubbed The Planetary Party - a model for bioregional gatherings focused on cultural exchange, celebration, hands-on regenerative action, data collection / Bioregional sense-making & resource-sharing via Bioregional Flow Funding. 🤹♀️🏕️🌾 The intention for these events is to serve as peak opps to build a future where collaboration, joy, mutual aid, & participatory grant making / flow funding guide how we heal Earth & our communities. 💃🏼🥁
As shared in the video, a few weeks back a crew of visionaries gathered at EcoTerra - a gorgeous 200-acre property in the Catskills, HQ for Spatial Network - to map & weave the movement, as well as to take action towards piloting The Planetary Party concept. Our next steps include co-creating agreements to support a federated ecosystem actualizing these gatherings. More to follow! ✨🌸
