Riverfront Sovereignty: Turning Miami Trust Lands into a Tribal Procurement Engine

The Miami Tribe of Oklahoma holds scattered trust parcels along the Wabash River. A tribal ordinance could require any business leasing riverfront land within 10 miles of those parcels to source at least 15 % of food, beverages or event supplies from tribally certified vendors.

Our neighbourhood grassroots community seed library box is installed. We are launching it in about 2 weeks. There's some seed sorting/packing I'm doing over next week to start stocking it up. I'll post photos of it setup soon.

We are calling it the Seven Oaks Seed Library. It's named after our little neighbourhood in South Saanich 🌱💚

Compassion in Crisis: Building Disaster-Resilient Communities. By Kailea Rose Loften , Kate Rose Weiner.

[ A vibrant and holistic grassroots guide to disaster preparedness that builds community resilience.

How do we live in the age of disaster? In this updated and expanded guide to collective crisis preparedness, Kailea and Kate, organizers and coeditors for the book and magazine publisher Loam, share community-shaped strategies on how to practically navigate the challenges posed by overlapping catastrophes—be they environmental, economic, political, or otherwise. Help is here for our bodies, hearts, minds, and shared homes. By amplifying resources for resilience, the authors underscore preparedness as a constant, communal practice. They offer inspiration from frontline organizers who help their communities prepare for emergencies, demonstrate how to envision probable futures after upheaval, and showcase people-powered projects that nurture collective regeneration. With engaging prompts, concise checklists, and heartfelt advice, Compassion in Crisis helps its readers build and sustain the durable mutual aid networks necessary for rapid response in the face of disaster. This is your invitation into the lifelong work of caring for our Earth and one another as we all find our way through the polycrisis. ]

Revolving Youth Loan Fund & Cooperative Purchasing for Little River Band

The Little River Band of Ottawa Indians sits beside the Manistee River in the western part of the state, where seasonal aquaculture and river‑based tourism create a niche for youth‑led enterprises that keep profits on‑reservation and reinforce land‑based sovereignty.

I've been kicking around the idea of a community built around belonging, curiosity, service, and genuine connection. A place where people can gather regularly, hear someone's story or learn something new, have thoughtful conversations over coffee, and build real friendships. Then once a month, instead of just talking about making our community better, we'd go volunteer or work on a local service project together.

Not a church. Not an anti-church. Not a political group.

Just neighbors creating the kind of community many of us wish we had.

Being based in Liberty, MO I've been calling the idea "Liberty Circle" because I love the symbolism of the circle. No one at the head. No one left outside. Just people coming together, making room for one another, and growing together.

Has anyone here been part of something like this? I'd love to hear what worked, what didn't, and what made people keep coming back.
