    logo_crossingworldshopiprojectsSedona AZ (March 26, 2014) – Hopi Sustainable Ways of Life & Head Start Edible Landscaping Project program will be held at the Sedona Library on April 6, 1:30 pm.  Hopi Tutskwa Permaculture Director Lilian HIll will talk about strengthening food security, traditions, and cultural values that support sustainable ways of life, in order to pass that knowledge on to future generations in this visual presentation.  Lilian is a Certified Permaculture Designer and Natural Builder living in Kykotsmovi, Hopi, with her family in their hand built passive solar home.   She fulfills family/clan responsibilities, works with her community, consults and is raising gardens and a large orchard using low water techniques and ecological farming.  

    20140326_lillianhillLilian is helping develop the plan for the 4 Hopi Head Start playgrounds to install drought tolerant fruit trees, edible native shrubs and windbreaks.  This is a key part of the on-going Hopi Head Start playground development project which was initiated by Rayma Duyongwa, Hopi Head Start Director, after receiving new equipment supplied by Crossing Worlds Hopi Projects (CWHP) of Sedona this winter.  CWHP is helping Hopi Head Start develop, fund and implement a 3-year playground project which will include a variety of outdoor experiences for the children interwoven with plantings using water sparing techniques.  The goal is for the children to have hands-on gardening experience and learn about healthy foods preparation.

    “This informative program is free, but invite donations (tax deductible) toward this important work at Hopi which will supply supply fruit trees and drip systems to the 4 Head Start playgrounds and support Lilian’s time and travel to Sedona,” says Cosentino, CWHP Director: “we will also have planting weekends where people from the Verde Valley are invited to come up an lend Hopi parents a hand.”

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
