#California: ‘Seeking seed donations': The #Altadena #SeedLibrary looks ahead to #regrowth

Story by Alysia Gray Painter, January 13, 2025

"Following the Jan. 7 fire that swept through the city, growers and gardening groups are beginning to think about what is next, groups that include the Altadena Seed Library.

"This community is enormously dedicated to native plants, but also had many farmers and growers who lost generations of crops at community gardens and in backyards.

"#Wildlife coming down from the foothills has lost habitat and food. the air quality will be poor and temperatures will be higher without the lush greenery that protected us. not to mention the vast natural spaces that have burned and may benefit from help #reseeding.

"If you have seeds to spare — particularly native plants — please send a message. please share widely.

"Monetary donations are also requested, if you are able to donate.

"Seeds may be sent to 37 Auburn Ave. #8, Sierra Madre, CA 91024 c/o Altadena Seed Library."

"By criminalizing fire, Spanish authorities effectively criminalized forms of #IndigenousKnowledge—like the cultivation of certain plants and management of #ecosystems—that relied on #controlledBurning. This put #Indigenous people in an impossible situation. Those who persisted with burning risked arrest and forced labor."

The price mechanism 🥰 #CaliforniaFires #economics

”High insurance prices are how the market both signals that an area is a risky place to live […] When governments mess with insurance prices—either through subsidies, cheap public insurance, or price controls—the result is always the same. More people move to dangerous areas that are highly susceptible to natural disasters. (1/2)

As many in the gaming hobby know, #boardgame artist Rodger MacGowan and family lost their home in the Palisades Fire this month. Two other fiends of mine (and fellow gamers) lost their homes in the Mountain Fire in Camarillo late last year. To raise money for those affected by the fires I am auctioning some board game related mugs on eBay. If you want to support Rodger directly there is a Gofundme campaign.

Kindly read on…
