SUMMARY:July meeting features the Permaculture Garden
DESCRIPTION:Join us July 18th at the Church of the Good Shepherd to tour the Permaculture Garden.  This GLC project started 5 years ago when Cynthia Taylor offered to teach a permaculture class and the Church of the Good Shepherd offered to let the group use a 1/2 acre as a demonstration garden for permaculture\, with the provision that it be used to grow food for people in need.  Turning a hayfield into a vibrant\, productive food forest doesn’t happen overnight; but as the community partners celebrate the fifth anniversary of this initiative\, it is beginning to “bear fruit.”  The garden now includes a  pollinator garden along the driveway\, a food forest\, a vegetable garden\, a Cross Garden and wooden benches for rest and mediation.\nThe Permaculture Group has logged 3100 hours of volunteer labor in the last five years.  More volunteers are needed\, and anyone is welcome to join the group.

SUMMARY:Film Series: What is Democracy?
DESCRIPTION:The First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward. \nFirst Fridays at 7:00 pm\, April through August at Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax. \nSeptember 6th\nWhat is Democracy?\n \nComing at a moment of profound political and social crisis\, What Is Democracy? reflects on a word we too often take for granted. \nDirector Astra Taylor’s idiosyncratic\, philosophical journey spans millennia and continents: from ancient Athens’ groundbreaking experiment in self-government to capitalism’s roots in medieval Italy; from modern-day Greece grappling with the financial collapse and a mounting refugee crisis to the United States reckoning with its racist past and the growing gap between rich and poor. \nFeaturing a diverse cast—including celebrated theorists\, trauma surgeons\, activists\, factory workers\, asylum seekers\, and former prime ministers—this urgent film connects the past and the present\, the emotional and the intellectual\, the personal and the political\, in order to provoke and inspire. If we want to live in a democracy\, we must first ask what the word even means.

SUMMARY:Film Series: Grow Food
DESCRIPTION:The First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward. \nFirst Fridays at 7:00 pm\, April through August at Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax. \nAugust 2nd\nGrow Food\n \nDocumentary filmmakers seek to charge a global movement with one big idea: growing food can fix a majority of the world’s problems. GROW FOOD\, a powerful story about local heroes bringing abundance to their communities will inspire and activate the multitude to join in and be the change we wish to see in the world. It is a documentary about you\, me\, and the current state of our planet – but most importantly it is about solutions – the solution – Grow Food. It may sound strange\, but it turns out the solution to most of our environmental and health problems is right beneath our feet – soil. Did you know that a large portion of the CO2 in the atmosphere actually came from the soil? Did you know that plants grown and managed in a biologically conscious way can put that very carbon back into the soil?! \nBy growing healthy food\, which creates healthy soil\, we are able to decrease carbon in the atmosphere! What happens when plants and microbes build healthy soil? We have more resilient food systems\, cleaner water\, cleaner air\, a better world. Not to mention fewer toxins in our food and environment! One simple act for so many benefits on so many levels! \nIndependently filmed over the course of a year\, GROW FOOD takes an unprecedented and intimate look at how people in the movement are bringing healthy food to their community. It is not only a deeply personal story but one with real-world utility for communities struggling with food security and low food quality worldwide.

SUMMARY:Film Series: Earth Seasoned #GapYear
DESCRIPTION:The First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward. \nFirst Fridays at 7:00 pm\, April through August at Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax. \nJuly 5th\nEarth Seasoned #GapYear\n \nEarth Seasoned…#GapYear is the inspiring story of five young urban women who spend a gap year between high school and college living semi-primitively in a remote mountainside wilderness in Oregon. Told mainly through the story of Tori Davis\, a teenager with learning difficulties\, the film chronicles the group’s four seasons in the woods as part of the Caretaker nature program. As the seasons succeed\, the group has to adapt to what the wilderness provides and to what it withholds. \nThrough lyrical live action footage and smartly paced animation\, the film reveals how separately and together the girls learn ancient skills of craftsmanship and teamwork and forge deep powers of resilience and self-reliance. Earth Seasoned has essential messages about talent\, compassion\, and community and about the real conditions for human flourishing. \n

SUMMARY:Film Series ANTHROPOCENE: THE HUMAN EPOCH

SUMMARY:Film Series: Symbiotic Earth
DESCRIPTION:The First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward. \nFirst Fridays at 7:00 pm\, April through August at Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax. \nApril 5th\nSymbiotic Earth\n \nSymbiotic Earth explores the life and ideas of scientific rebel Lynn Margulis who challenged entrenched theories of male-dominated science. As a young scientist in the 1960s\, Margulis was ridiculed when she first proposed that symbiosis – when organisms live and work together — was a key driver of evolution\, but she persisted. Through numerous collaborations\, she caused a seismic shift in our understanding of life. \nMargulis’ symbiotic narrative presents an alternative to the destructive worldview that has led to climate change and extreme capitalism. With James Lovelock\, she developed the Gaia Theory that all life is interconnected and interdependent. Her vision offers bold insights into health\, society\, and nature\, and inspires creative approaches to our pressing environmental and social crises. \n

SUMMARY:First Friday Film Series: A Small Good Thing
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, July 6th at 7:00 pm\, LandCare presents the film A Small Good Thing. \nWe’ve sought ease\, comfort and wealth – but are people happier with more money? What is the science behind a good life? Following several people over a typical year\, A Small Good Thing looks at the simple sources of human happiness. \nWhat makes up a happy life? For the longest time\, we’ve been living as though the more we have the happier we’ll be. Surprisingly\, over the last fifty years\, our standard of living has improved\, but our happiness has not. A Small Good Thing follows three main stories – Jen and Pete\, an idealistic\, young couple who have just purchased land to farm\, Tim\, an Iraqi vet who uses yoga and cycling to keep addictions at bay\, and Shirley\, a community organizer who works with urban youth in a city overwhelmed by heroin addiction and blight. Over the course of a year\, the film follows them through the inevitable ups and downs of life. To gain insight into the lives of Jen\, Pete\, Tim and Shirley\, the film looks at the science behind our need to be in community and near nature – that it’s crucial to human well-being\, not some luxury to be reserved for vacations. \n \nThe First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward.  Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax.

SUMMARY:First Friday Film Series: Look & See
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, May 4th at 7:00 pm\, LandCare presents Look & See: A Portrait of Wendell Berry. \n\n\nLOOK & SEE revolves around the divergent stories of several residents of Henry County\, Kentucky who each face difficult choices that will dramatically reshape their relationship with the land and their community. \nIn 1965\, Wendell Berry returned home to Henry County\, where he bought a small farmhouse and began a life of farming\, writing and teaching.  This lifelong relationship with the land and community would come to form the core of his prolific writings. A half-century later Henry County\, like many rural communities across America\, has become a place of quiet ideological struggle. In the span of a generation\, the agrarian virtues of simplicity\, land stewardship\, sustainable farming\, local economies and rootedness to place have been replaced by a capital-intensive model of industrial agriculture characterized by machine labor\, chemical fertilizers\, soil erosion and debt – all of which have frayed the fabric of rural communities. Writing from a long wooden desk beneath a forty-paned window\, Berry has watched this struggle unfold\, becoming one of its most passionate and eloquent voices in defense of agrarian life. \nFilmed across four seasons in the farming cycle\, LOOK & SEE blends observational scenes of farming life\, interviews with farmers and community members with evocative\, carefully framed shots of the surrounding landscape.  Thus\, in the spirit of Berry’s agrarian philosophy\, Henry County itself will emerge as a character in the film – a place and a landscape that is deeply interdependent with the people that inhabit it. \n \nThe First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward.  Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax.

SUMMARY:First Friday Film Series: The Messenger
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, April 6th at 7:00 pm\, LandCare presents Messenger: Imagine a World Without Birdsong. \nSu Rynard’s wide-ranging and contemplative documentary THE MESSENGER explores our deep-seated connection to birds and warns that the uncertain fate of songbirds might mirror our own. Moving from the northern reaches of the Boreal Forest to the base of Mount Ararat in Turkey to the streets of New York\, THE MESSENGER brings us face-to-face with a remarkable variety of human-made perils that have devastated thrushes\, warblers\, orioles\, tanagers\, grosbeaks and many other airborne music-makers. \nOn one level\, THE MESSENGER is an engaging\, visually stunning\, emotional journey\, one that mixes its elegiac message with hopeful notes and unique glances into the influence of songbirds on our own expressions of the soul. On another level\, THE MESSENGER is the artful story about the mass depletion of songbirds on multiple continents\, and about those who are working to turn the tide. \nIn ancient times humans looked to the flight and songs of birds to protect the future. Today once again\, birds have something to tell us. \n \nThe First Friday Film Series\, hosted by Grayson LandCare & Church of the Good Shepherd brings documentary films to the public\, complete with popcorn and panel discussions afterward.  Church of the Good Shepherd: 9441 Grayson Pkwy\, Galax.
