SUMMARY:2020 Fibershed Wool & Fine Fiber Symposium: Healthy Soil and Sea
DESCRIPTION:The 9th annual Fibershed Symposium will focus on how natural fiber and dye systems can positively impact soil and sea. Join us this November 12 – 14: \n[Registration coming soon] \nFrom the landscape to the seascape\, the largest active carbon pools on planet earth are where we humans work\, and where the impacts of our lives are made evident. When textiles are drawn from fossil carbon reserves and spun into plastic clothing\, we see ripple effects from climate destabilization to microplastic pollution. Extractive industries undermine our value systems – from the pressures of overproduction on garment workers to the excesses of disposable clothing. \nIn land-based fiber and dye systems\, we see living examples that restore soil health and change the course of fashion and agriculture’s impact on waterways. Reconnecting to bioregional and cultural models of production\, we can contribute to our oceans’ health and well-being\, our soils\, our manufacturing sector\, and our fiber and dye sovereignty. \nMore information on our 2020 Symposium page.

SUMMARY:Making a Lake Pigment: the alchemy of solid pigments from natural dyes with Judi Pettite
DESCRIPTION:A pigment is water insoluble and can be used for water and oil based paints. Making a dry pigment from a natural dye is a very old tradition that connected the guilds—dyers and painters and craftspeople in search of concentrated lightfast hues that were portable\, storage friendly colors. \nIn this 3-hour class\, we will discuss the difference between dyes\, extracts and lakes and their uses. We will also cover the process of making a lake pigment step by step. Three colors will be demonstrated—yellow\, red and brown. The main focus will be on the process of making your own pigments\, subsequent classes will explain and elaborate the application of lake and other natural pigments. \nParticipants will be invited to submit questions. There will be 30-minute break midway through the webinar\, and the webinar ends at 1:30 pm. \nTo register: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_2sDEmM-bSiCVS4QJlXBDpw \n\nThis webinar is part of a series that will be streaming live via Zoom from the Fibershed Learning Center\, a multi-use space to demonstrate and provide hands-on connections to natural fiber and dye systems.

SUMMARY:Contract Grazing in the Time of Fire
DESCRIPTION:In this time of unprecedented wildfires across the West\, it’s clear that wild and cultivated lands haven’t been managed to mitigate the risk of fire and we are all suffering for it. Join a panel of expert graziers to learn more about targeted grazing in the time of fire. Targeted grazing benefits land\, ranchers\, and the public good. It restores pasture\, builds fire resilience into the landscape\, and presents a promising business opportunity for ranchers. If you are interested in land management and fire prevention or are a rancher thinking of branching out into contract grazing- this workshop is for you. Join UC Cooperative Extension advisor Dan Macon from Flying Mule Farm and targeted grazing practitioners Marie Hoff from Full Circle Wool\, and Andree Soares from Star Creek Land Stewards\, for a conversation about establishing and operating a successful targeted grazing business. Presenters will cover topics from business management to logistics and fuels reduction to weed management. \n  \nSession D\, January 21\, 11:45 am – 1:00 pm
