ACT5 MONEY - PAYING IT FORWARD
I have been a sick puppy. It's no secret that I am scrambling to catch up with everything in my life - including my EVOKE missions! I pondered how I could create a currency, barter for skills etc. and it made my head spin. And then I thought about the little flat of tomato seedlings I have yet to plant. For my Act5 I am going to give John Shea my tomato plants along with the knowledge of how to plant them in a grow box. Here is a picture of my husband helping me to build my grow boxes. You…

As always, the heart of this humanitarian work is to foster possibility and solutions through community agreement and participation.
