I'm looking for examples of companion planting using #nativespecies for #foodsystems and #ecological #restoration. The Three Sisters method of growing corn, beans, and squash together is an example from #indigenous North America. Are there other regional examples of native plants that can be grown together for mutual benefit? What about sea vegetables in #coastal settings?

There will be no impact, because pay equity in the #palmoil supply chain is non-existent. This is according to a 2021 report by Chain Reaction Research which shows 66%+ of the gross profit goes to large corporates such as Ferrero, Nestle, Unilever, Cargill and Mondelez and 0% or below flows back to farmers. #workersrights #landrights.

Most #indigenous farmers are forced from their land and made to work on it for almost nothing

Te reo Māori inspires Native American to save her own Indigenous language from extinction

#SavingCarbonSinks: Ecuadorian social #movements have bypassed pro-extractivist #politicians with a national #referendum to keep #oil from Block 43 also known as “Yasuní ITT,” a concession in the deepest part of the Amazonian protected Yasuní National #Forest, in the ground. While movements around the world have successfully achieved #mining moratoria, this is an important new strategy for #environmental and #Indigenous #rights activists.

Buy my latest zine "Sycorax: Portal to Afro-Indigenous Femme Subjectivity"

"...By focusing on Shakespeare character from his play The Tempest, Sycorax, those Afro-Indigenous femmes that often exist with a vocal void are able to begin to navigate through philosophy that does not commit any kind of erasure, be it either through gender or race by either philosophy or nation state identity building projects..."
