SUMMARY:Rewilding our Communities for Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nWhat holds some 500 species\, sequesters 500 pounds of 
 CO2/year\, is 10°F cooler than its surroundings\, soaks up lots of rainwa
 ter\, and is created by children and their elders in spaces no bigger than
  a tennis court? A “mini-forest” planted using the Miyawaki Method\, o
 f course! After a couple of years of as-needed weeding and watering\, thes
 e nascent forests form a canopy and\n— like any other healthy ecosystem 
 — become self-sufficient.We’ll discuss what a mini-forest is\, what it
  can do for your neighborhood\, how to plant one\, and why people all over
  the world are organizing their communities to plant mini-forests in the s
 mall spaces around where they live and work.\n\nHannah Lewis is the author
  of Mini-Forest Revolution: Using the Miyawaki Method to Rapidly Rewild th
 e World\, published in June 2022 by Chelsea Green\; a French translation o
 f the book was released in January 2023 by Editions Eyrolles in France. Ha
 nnah has an MS in Sustainable Agriculture\nand Sociology from Iowa State U
 niversity and a BA in Environmental Studies from Middlebury College. She l
 ives in Minneapolis\, where she works for the non-profit Renewing the Coun
 tryside to build sustainable local and regional food systems and plant min
 i-forests.\n\nSign up: https://bit.ly/3KyvfAk\n\n\n\n
