A fire update to our community: On Friday morning, an ember landed on our historic farm house built in 1863 and it was burned. Our hearts are breaking for this ...lost home, working space, piece of history. May this unexpected fire be the beginning of transformation. May we resolve to bring back indigenous knowledge, build resilient homes for all people, practice climate restoration, feed our community, bring justice to this land and food system, love more, and learn to make this road by walking. If you would like to support us in the rebuilding effort to restore all the damage done to Pie Ranch, you may find our donation page here: pieranch.org/take-action #phoenixrising #pieranch See more
