Fire Mountain School’s Annual Holiday Greens Fundraiser is back!

For forty years, FMS has been providing an independent educational experience for children of southern Clatsop and northern Tillamook Counties. We employ creative play, individual attention, nature awareness and exploration, children’s passions and small class sizes to develop motivated life-long learners who have deep knowledge and respect for self, others and their environment.

The school is funded by a combination of tuition, individual donations and local fundraising.

Please help us reach our fundraising goal by purchasing some fine, Oregon-grown holiday greens.
Orders must be placed by November 13th for free November 30th delivery.

We are selling wreaths, garlands, poinsettias and more.

The Great Decisions Program is put on every year by the Foreign Policy Association. The is a national program on American Foreign Policy topics that appears on PBS late in the Spring.

Typically local groups get their materials in the winter and discuss one of the 8 topics weekly. A briefing book is provided at cost and often very lively discussions ensue.
I can order books at a discount for the next week, but I need to know how many are interested in the program.

NCRD’s version usually starts in mid-January and goes to mid-March. We meet on Tuesday afternoon from 1:30 pm till around 3:00 pm in the Fireside Room.

NCRD is located at 36155 Ninth St., Nehalem.

For more information on the program or this year’s topics, email me at knappgj@yahoo.com.

We’re offering $20 off to new Reiki clients on Thursdays and Sundays at Spa Manzanita.

Sessions can be booked online at spamanzanita.com or give us text/call at 503.689.8679

You might be asking What is Reiki?
Reiki is a wellness practice of energy healing. It is believed to help remove energy blockages and restore the body’s natural balance and harmony. It encourages you to be in the present, to be relaxed and aware within yourself, and to allow energy to flow in your life.

You will be face-up on the massage table, remaining fully clothed, except for your shoes, glasses, phone, and smart devices.

Many people report experiencing imagery and enlightenment, feeling relaxed and more at peace after a session. Some discover profound calmness and quieting of “mind chatter”. Each Reiki session will be a similar, yet a unique experience. It is important to note that Reiki should not be used as a substitute for medical advice or treatment.

Happy mid-October! I just wanted to send a quick love note to all of you and summarize the last 6 months at Dirty Bird’s to those of you who are new or could not attend all of the amazingness.

Our 1st May Day Gathering, ongoing Plant and Compost Sales, our June adult summer camp, the July 4th Mini Music Fest, the screening of Stop Making Sense in August, the beautiful labyrinth created by Za, yoga with April, the Aldervale Plant Sale with Hope, and the ongoing North Coast Community Saunas with Mike. Phew! Thanks for making things happen! I love it!

We continue to collect food scraps for our worms and have thrown some cover crop seeds around the lot now that the rains have finally arrived in full force. Let’s see what grows!

If you want to use the Dirty Bird’s lot for anything fun please let me know. I am open to just about anything! I hope you all have a beautiful fall/winter season.

Check out the new Resources page on our website

to discover some things that I love. I hope you love them too. Share your loves and I will add them to the website. See you around the towns!
