Regenerating Landscapes, Remaking Society Summer Residential Program
This program is suited for those who want to dig in – both physically and intellectually – to the intersection of social change and ecological restoration. It’s great for those who view community level organizing as fundamental to systemic change and are seeking to ground this organizing in hands-on skills to restore native habitat, especially with an eye towards producing a yield to support the material needs of the human community. Some may find this program to be rigorous and demanding making it ideal and rewarding for highly motivated folks seeking a fully immersive experience.

Introduction to Silvopasture
Join Abel Kloster and Drew Thomas for an introduction to Silvopasture and a walkabout with the resident sheep herd on the CRL campus. We will discuss strategies learned for grazing integrations into various regional contexts including Oregon white oak and young conifer stands as well as orchards. Topics covered will include establishing new silvopasture plantings and converting existing forest stands, herd management, forage management, and water supply systems. We will also clean up an area recently grazed and prepare a new paddock for the herd.
This series is offered by donation and no one will be turned away for lack of funds. Please come prepared with comfortable clothes for light outdoor work and your own lunch. Please sign up for the workshop series here.
