Help us finish the first Tree monument on public land.

It deserves to be recognized on the historical register. Places to be preserved..remembered where black and brown people lived for almost a century on land.

Were looking to put a sleeve and railing...adinkra symbols and a solar island to unearth the function of trees in our community in a vibrant way for all to experience and acknowledge.

We need it now so land stewards who tend the Earth can overstand themselves.. Success is sometimes more than money, but should include it also.

May we teach the children about the Sun, the trees, the Earth...money too
so they can preserve and protect the trees and their lessons around their importance and functions on the Earth...

the lessons are all here for us now.

Sankofa!
Sending good vibes for restoration and rejeuvenation.
and a few days of ease .
before visioning and looking over our new realities for urban agriculture now in our expanded state.

Its always so tempting to shut down when things get rough...
But we started market when things were impossible, it was 2009 when everyone laughed at us for making that sort of sacrifice here in Bedford Stuyvesant.

It is only natural that we also prosper and share in the growth and expansion of what happens now.

So grateful to all whove contributed to what we see here today. And to those that will contribute to securing futures for us All.

Sending energy to the backs , shoulders and minds in the ecosystem.
