I'm an artist and environmentalist, organizing a performance art piece and celebration called Fossil Fuel Independence Day-- a day founded in the future when we achieved sustainability, affordable healthcare and justice. The day will be full of activities such as rock climbing, community singing, a fashion show and more, celebrating the work of activists, organizers and thinkers that led us towards justice (<a href="https://ffid.us/" target="_blank" class="">https://ffid.us</a>).</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">We believe community gardening is and will increasingly be an important aspect of developing holistic and healing urban spaces, so we would love to collaborate.
