On the coast we have many different types of weather events: flooding, tornados, ice storms, power outages, a hurricane, and possibly some day an earthquake/tsunami.
We may not like to think about these events happening here, but we do need to think about being prepared for emergency situations.
When we are prepared as neighborhoods, as coastal communities, we can help each other and be less stress on our emergency responders.
Register for either of the upcoming WaSH classes and learn about water sourcing, water filtration, water storage, and sanitation & hygiene practices that will aid you during weather events and natural disasters.

White Clover Grange hosts apple tree grafting workshop

On April 5 from 1pm to 4 pm, the Grange will host a grafting workshop that is free and open to the public.

We will feature heritage apple varieties that will be grafted on to semi-dwarf disease resistant root stock.

The art of grafting is an old one. Since apple trees do not reproduce the same variety from their seeds, farmers and horticulturalists take scion wood (a young branch from an existing tree) and attached it to a similar sized branch that has roots. The two branches are matched for size and then taped together. If done well, the two parts will fuse and a new tree will grow. The scion wood is responsible for the type of apple, while the root stock controls characteristics such as the height of the tree, vigor, and disease resistance.

Materials will be provided. However, if you would like to bring scion wood from your own trees, it is best to collect young branches about the size of a pencil as soon as possible, while the trees are still dormant, and place in a bag in the refrigerator until the workshop.

To sign up for the workshop or for more information, contact Jennifer Childress at 503-801-4078

Learn about the various benefits and pick up this essential cooking skill. Cooking with earths microbes makes veggies more nutritious and supports how we are able to digest the rest of our foods we eat them with while improving our immunity and health on other levels.

If you don’t have these foods as part of your regular diet, now is a great time to start! You can be eating yummy probiotic pickled carrots made in your own kitchen with your spring and Easter celebration meals. Kids (of all ages!) love the tangy and zippy taste too!

This is a two-part class. $35 includes both days. 1 hr each day. We reconvene on Tuesday the 8th to discuss how everyone’s processes went, answer questions and explore further recipes now that you’ll have successfully navigated a basic veggie ferment!

Cape Lookout Stewardship Day offers opportunities to give back and work to maintain our natural areas and restore healthy coastal landscapes.
Every year, WEBS partners with Cape Lookout State Park to offer opportunities to give back, maintain our natural areas, and restore healthy coastal landscapes. Our efforts to remove ivy and establish new native plants have made a huge impact in the park over the last few years.

This year, we will continue our efforts with ivy removal and native plant maintenance, AND we will be creating a new native pollinator garden in the day use area. Join park staff along with WEBS volunteers on Thursday, April 3rd, to prepare the bed for this new garden. “Events like this not only offer an opportunity to give back, participants can connect with others in the community, enjoy a day outdoors and hear about the successes and challenges for maintaining the health of Cape Lookout State Park” shares Marina Dreeben, WEBS Stewardship Coordinator. She goes on to say, “and keep an eye out for more Stewardship Days this Spring!”

Activities are designed to accommodate a variety of skill levels. Families are welcome.

What to Bring:
Water bottle and snacks
Long pants and sturdy boots
Rain gear and layers to stay warm and comfortable working on the Oregon Coast
Work gloves, hand pruners, shovels, and trowels if you have them! (WEBS will also provide tools)

The Winter has done its job of giving us dark days to go within, to reflect and to dream. What a blessing it is to have seasons to remind us of the rhythms of life!

And now we are on the cusp of Spring!

THURSDAY, MARCH 20TH

This time of symmetry — equal light and dark — may help us remember that both aspects together create wholeness. We may reflect upon the light, the dark, no difference — that each is an opportunity to embrace and express the divinity within.

As we shake off the Hibernation of the Winter and step into the Renewal of Spring, we can ask ourselves questions to stir our innermost longings.

What does a new season mean personally and collectively?

In what ways might we shed old and habitual ways of being to embrace something new?

What might a new world —internal and external — look like?
