From YouTube: Eastie Farm Celebration
Description
Join in as Mayor Janey and the East Boston community celebrate Eastie Farm, an abandoned lot turned community garden dedicated to improving food access and community resilience through developing urban agriculture spaces. Additionaly, the city announced that $332,400 has been awarded through the Grassroots and Community Preservation Act in order to help Eastie Farm as well as other urban gardens throughout Boston.
A
A
A
A
You
know,
but
but
I'm
very
excited
that
you're
here
and
and
and
council
edwards,
it's
so
good
to
have
you
here
as
well,
so
this
project
actually
came
together
because
of
the
city
and
people
in
the
community
and
people
in
private
sector
all
working
together.
It
looks
like
a
little
space
with
a
garden
and
that's
that's
what
you
kind
of
see.
It
almost
looks
like
a
glorified
pathway
right.
You
can
go
right
through
there,
which
some
people
do.
A
However,
what
doesn't
quite
strike
the
eye
as
you
pass
through
is
all
the
other
things
that
may
be
subtle,
but
still
happening.
If
you
look
at
the
downspouts
on
both
sides
here
you
see
that
the
water
that's
collected
on
the
roofs
of
our
neighbors
are
actually
coming
into
the
space,
which
means
we're
taking
the
flooding
away
from
them
and
converting
it
into
water
for
the
plants
that
grow
here.
A
So
that's
what
people
call
a
win-win
situation
right
when
you
think
about
climate
change
and
when
you
think
about
flooding
as
the
forecast
for
the
northeast
extreme
precipitation
is
the
forecast.
How
do
you
deal
with
that?
You
could
do
things
like
this,
so
that
kind
of
solution
orientation
is
what
this
organization
excels
in
and
there's
also
back
there
for
those
of
you
who
went
back
there
to
try
out
the
mulberries.
I
know
you
did
yes,
and
you
also
probably
saw
the
compost
bin
there.
You
probably
didn't
smell.
Anything,
though
did
you
no
right.
A
That's,
because
the
composting
is
being
done
right.
If
you
do
composting
right,
it
shouldn't
smell
bad
at
all.
If
you
aerate
it
well,
so
what
is
that?
That's
us
not
sending
our
food
waste
on
transportation,
which
is
carbon
emissions,
not
sending
it
to
an
incinerator
which
is
even
more
carbon,
not
burying
the
ash
in
romney
marsh,
which
is
horrible
for
the
delicate
biodiversity
there,
avoiding
all
that
and
locally
processing
our
food
waste.
So
we
would
have
fertile
soil
in
the
city
which
we
very
much
need
because
most
of
our
soil
is
contaminated.
A
A
It's
a
garlic's
cape
yeah,
not
many
people
know
that,
but
it's
good
that
you
know
so
this.
This
is
what
flowers
of
the
garlic
and
it's
not
a
go,
the
garlic
itself.
The
garlic
is
underground
in
and
has
a
root,
the
very
first
time
we
got
permit
to
start
this
place.
It
was
a
little
bit
of
a
dump.
I
hope
nobody's
offended
when
I
say
that-
and
I
used
to
walk
here
and-
and
monica
is
here-
has
noticed
that
as
well
and
a
few
of
us
initially
were
looking
at
this.
A
How
could
this
be
a
better
place
for
our
neighborhood
when
somebody
throws
trash
on
here?
Somebody
else
thinks:
okay,
that's
the
place
where
you
throw
trash
and
somebody
else
also
throws
trash
on
the
top
of
it.
It
becomes
this
trash
pile.
So
that's
a
vicious
cycle,
but
you
don't
have
to
let
it
go
on
like
that.
All
we
did
was
got
a
little
permit
from
the
city
and
from
dnd
and
got
into
the
space
and
planted
a
little
flower
garden
up
there.
When
people
saw
that,
then
they
said.
Oh
somebody
cares
for
this
space.
A
We're
not
going
to
throw
anything
any
trash
on
here
and
also
there's
was
a
sense
of
ownership
that
eventually
came
on.
I
noticed
that,
as
you
came
in
you
ask
someone
if
they
have
a
plot
here,
we
don't
do
plots
in
this
space.
There's
a
whole
community
coming
in
and
growing
edible
food
for
the
rest
of
the
community.
The
harvest
here
goes
to
soup
kitchen
food
pantries
and
places
like
that.
So
nobody
owns
any
piece
of
the
space.
A
It's
it's
community
owned
land
is
how
we'd
like
to
treat
that
people
work
on
it
together
and
we
make
mistakes
together.
That
way,
you
can
blame
somebody
else
right,
yeah,
it's
so
much
easier
when
you
don't
have
to
do
your
entire
lot
yourself,
so
that
that
permit
that
we
got
in
the
big
in
2015
by
the
time
we
entered
here
it
was
already
august
and
there
was
a
lot
of
cleanup
to
do.
There
wasn't
much
of
a
growing
season
left
after
that.
A
So
all
we
could
do
was
plant
garlic
and
does
anybody
know
how
long
garlic,
how
long
of
a
crop
garlic
is?
If
you
plant
it
in
a
year
yeah,
so
you
harvest
you,
you
plant
in
the
fall
and
you
harvest
around
right
now
you
can
harvest
it,
maybe
a
little
bit
later
than
this,
you
can
harvest.
So
that
gave
us
the
excuse
to
go
back
to
dnd
and
say
at
the
end
of
the
year.
You
got
to
extend
the
permit.
Please
we
haven't.
A
We
haven't
harvested
the
garlic
yet
and
they
were
like
all
right,
fine,
and
so
we
pulled
that
a
few
times
and
then
they
caught
on
to
that
and
you
can
have
the
land
yeah.
So
it's
kind
of
how
we
came
into
this,
but
the
city
has
been
such
a
wonderful
partner,
wonderful,
wonderful
partner
in
doing
this
and
our
city,
I'm
very
proud
of
our
city
in
being
so
progressive,
and
so
in
touch
with
grassroots
organizations
and
putting
money
and
other
kinds
of
resources
and
tech
offering
technical
support.
A
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you
so
much
I
will
take
it.
I
will
take
it,
I'm
just
going
to
do
some
quick,
thank
yous.
I
want
to
thank
you
canon
for
all
that
you
are
doing
here
and
certainly
also
want
to
recognize
alex
on
your
team
on
on
my
team.
There
you
go,
give
them
a
shout
out
on
my
team.
There
are
a
number
of
folks
here,
but
I
just
quickly.
I
want
to
thank
sheila
for
her
leadership
in
the
city.
B
She
has
been
amazing,
certainly
on
the
housing
front,
but
this
is
one
of
our
our
best
kept
secrets
that
we
need
to
do
more,
and
more
of
so
thank
you
sheila.
I'm
also
want
to
recognize
shani
who
heads
up
the
grassroots
program.
Thank
you
so
much
for
everything
that
you
do
in
addition
to
the
electeds
who
have
been
mentioned,
and
certainly
councillor
edwards.
This
is
her
district,
we're
also
represented
by
council
arroyo's
office.
So
just
want
to
thank
folks
for
being
here.
You
know
this
is
is
beautiful.
B
This
is
what
community
is
all
about
back
in
2009
long
before
I
was
mayor
long
before
I
was
a
city
councilor.
I
organized
my
neighbors
because
we
wanted
to
do
a
community
garden.
We
wanted
to.
There
was
an
empty
lot.
As
you
said,
it
was
an
eyesore.
It
was
overrun
with
weeds
people
would
dump
their
trash
there,
and
this
began
to
we
began
meeting
around
this
and
we
formed
a
neighborhood
association,
and
so
I
I
started
a
neighborhood
association
with
the
desire
to
do
a
community
garden
and
this
community
group.
B
B
Yes,
indeed,
thank
you
for
that,
and
it
was
for
me
a
very
difficult
year
and
my
garden
in
many
ways
represented
rebirth
and
a
way
for
me
to
connect
not
only
with
the
earth
but
to
connect
with
my
creator,
and
I
started
with
flowers
and
the
first
year.
You
know
I
had
to
learn.
I
started
with
a
bunch
of
animals
and
then
I
was
like
what
happened
the
next
year.
B
But
also
you
know
it
is
what
you've
already
mentioned
in
terms
of
how
we
care
for
the
environment
and
what
it
means
for
climate
justice
and
what
it
means
for
food
access
and
for
for
teaching
our
children
at
a
very
early
age.
The
importance
of
growing
our
own
food
and
and
having
access
to
healthy
food
and
we're
more
likely
to
eat
our
vegetables
when
we
grow
our
food.
And
so
this
is
just
wonderful,
wonderful
representation,
and
I'm
just
so
grateful
that
we
get
to
do
this
together.
B
That
this
is
something
that
the
city
of
boston
can
support
residents
in
doing
all
across
our
city,
and
it's
something
that
I
am
a
huge
fan
of.
So
I
want
to
do
more
and
more
and
more
and
sheila
knows
like
I'm.
I
want
to
take
these
lots.
We
don't
have
to
every
single
time
we
see
a
plot
of
land
and
we
own
it
turn
it
into
housing.
You
know
this
looks
like
this
was
probably
a
building
here
at
some
point
that
got
torn
down.
We
can
repurpose
it.
B
We
can
reimagine
what
we
do
with
our
land
and
we
can
use
our
land
to
bring
our
residents
together
to
build
community
together,
because
for
me
that
is
one
of
the
things
that
makes
this
so
special.
So
I
don't
want
to
talk
a
lot.
I
want
to
continue
to
try
different
things
that
are
planted.
I
had
some
of
the
mulberries
and,
if
there's
any
mint
I'd
love
to
taste
that-
and
I
hope
everyone
will
stop
by
and
taste
some
of
the
food
that
yahaya
there
he
is
has
offered
here.
B
C
Right
yeah,
no,
this
is
this,
is
a
wonderful
gathering
and,
and
for
those
of
you
who
don't
come
to
east
boston,
welcome
to
east
boston.
This
is
who
we
are.
This
is
what
we
look
like,
and
this
is
what
we're
we're
going
to
fight
to
maintain
the
diversity,
the
immigrants
that
are
here,
the
working
class
people
who
have
been
here
who
built
this
built
this
beautiful
neighborhood
built
this
country.
C
If,
in
anything,
this
is
an
this
to
me,
is
an
indication
of
the
seeds
when
we
plant
together
when
we
plant
honestly
and
we
grow
together.
This
is
how
neighborhoods
stick
together:
we're
stronger
because
of
eastie
farm
kanan,
your
leadership.
I
know
you're
too
humble
to
say
it,
but
your
leadership
is
the
reason
why
so
many
of
us
are
here
today.
C
And
he
isn't
just
a
leader
in
this
farm
he's
a
leader
on
the
greenway
he's
a
leader
in
climate
justice
and
his
leadership
is
wonderful
because
he
brings
people
together
for
the
difficult
conversations
but
the
honest
ones
as
well.
I
want
to
thank
you
so
much
because
you
know
you've
made
me
a
better
better
city
counselor,
because
you've
opened
my
eyes
to
all
the
ways
in
which
we
can
push
the
envelope
together
and
honestly,
not
just
in
policy
not
just
with
paperwork,
not
just
with
funds,
so
we
need
them
sheila
and
thank
you
so
much.
C
Thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you
so
much.
Thank
you.
So
much
we'll
always
take
some
more,
but
we'll
take
a
little
bit
more
on
that.
We'll
probably
have
a
cpa
grant
coming
through
just
letting
you
know,
but
the
fact
is
you
can
throw
a
lot
of
money
at
a
lot
of
things,
but
if
you
don't
have
community
there
to
help
define
where
it
goes
to
help
define
how
it
grows,
then
you
you
are
misplanting
and
mis
investing
that
money.
So
I
I
am
beyond
excited
to
be
here
to
celebrate
this
investment.
C
The
seeds
that
we
planted
and
to
see
how
far
they're
going
to
grow
east
boston
is,
I
think,
the
heartbeat
of
the
city
of
boston,
I'm
biased,
I'm
biased,
I'm
biased.
But
it's
you
know
if
you
know
our
history,
you
know
that
generations,
generations
of
immigrants
came
here.
We
were
only
second
to
ellis
island
and
the
amount
of
immigrants
and
honestly
new
new
americans.
C
We
made
americans
here
in
east
boston
and
we're
going
to
continue
to
welcome,
continue
to
grow
wherever
you
come
from
and
the
beautiful
language
that
you
come
from,
regardless
of
status,
because
the
only
thing
that
matters
is
that
you
live
here.
You
are
loved
and
you're
welcome,
and
this
is
an
indication
of
that.
So
thank
you.
So
much.
A
Don't
go
anywhere
there.
There
are
a
few
more
speakers.
So
thank
you
mayor
and
thank
you.
Counselor.
There
is,
as
I
said,
there's
a
representation
from
rep
moderators
office.
Just
will
be
speaking
and
also
there's
representation
from
senator
bonkers
office.
Maggie
will
be
speaking
so
after
that
there
are
a
couple
of
folks
from
ec
farm
who
really
wanted
to
speak.
They
are
trying
out
public
speaking
for
the
first
time.
A
And
they're
gonna
go
for
like
a
minute
or
two.
If
they're
nervous,
they
may
talk
talk
for
half
an
hour-
I
don't
know
but
yeah
there's
also
they've
also
put
together
things
as
gifts.
So
hang
on
for
that.
In
the
meantime,
I
wanted
something
that
the
counselor
said
reminded
me
of
a
point
I
wanted
to
make
earlier.
You
mentioned
community
and
you
mentioned
diversity.
A
A
It's
cool
under
the
mulberry
tree
is
cool
too,
but
it's
a
bit
of
a
walk
from
there
to
there.
If
you're
already
walking
around
the
neighborhood,
it's
nice
to
sit
at
the
picnic
table
and
relax,
she
even
has
a
corner
there.
So
that
says
it's
my
corner
right,
so
nobody
else
can
occupy
that
corner.
That
say
goes
so.
A
I
I
mentioned
community,
because
when
you
go
back
here
all
the
way
back
here
you
can
recognize
corn
plants
right
corn,
yeah,
the
tallest
ones
here,
basically
right
and
look
at
what's
growing
next
to
the
corn,
you
will
see
bean
and
the
beans
are
using
the
corn
as
their
stalk
to
wrap
around
and
grow,
and
if
you
look
in
the
ground,
you'll
find
cucumber
or
squash
growing,
and
those
are.
These
large
leaves
that
cover
the
soil.
A
Soil
should
be
covered
because
there's
life
in
the
soil
and
that
needs
to
be
sheltered
and
this
plant
squash
is
offering
that
coverage
to
soil,
which
is
important
and
the
bean
that's
growing
around
this.
The
corn
stalk
is
offering
nitrogen
to
the
soil,
which
is
important.
That
is
how
you
replenish
nutrition
back
in
the
soil.
A
As
opposed
to
needing
new
chemical
fertilizers
every
year
right,
if
you
just
you,
can
follow
crop
rotation,
but
this
technique
was
followed
by
native
americans
in
central
america
even
before
the
european
method
of
crop
rotation
of
growing
companion
plants,
families
of
plants
that
depend
on
each
other
support
each
other
and
also
constantly
make
soil
a
living
thing,
and
soil
is
a
living
thing
and
we
should
protect
soil
that
way
right.
So
strong
communities,
diverse
communities
when
we
all
know
how
to
support
each
other.
A
Well,
as
we
do
within
this,
the
staff
and
volunteers
of
east
farm
within
the
community
of
east
of
east
boston
and
with
the
city
of
boston
and,
of
course,
around
the
world,
we
could
all
support
each
other
mutually.
That
way
and
we'll
we'll
we'll
hear
from
a
mutual
aid
sp
speaker
later,
when
she'll
speak
more
about
that.
In
the
meantime,
I
want
to
hand
over
the
too
jess
welcome
jeff.
D
Oh,
thank
you
so
much
come
on.
Thank
you,
east
farm,
for
for
having
us
tonight.
I
am
for
those
of
you
who
do
not
know
me,
I'm
jessica,
martinez.
I
am
the
new
legislative
aide
for
representative
motorow
and
myself,
and
our
chief
of
staff.
Stephen
gingra,
are
here
tonight
representing
the
office
and
I
have
not
done
a
speaking
engagement
and
I
can't
tell
you
how
long
I
grew
up
going
to
zumix
performing
but
wow.
This
is.
This
is
incredible.
D
D
That
was
such
such
an
incredible
help
for
the
for
the
neighborhood,
and
I
want
to
say
that
last
week
we
just
passed
the
state
budget
and
rob
mataro
was
able
to
secure
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
aid
easty
farm
in
continuing
their
mission
to
assist
in
providing
food
security
to
the
neighborhood.
So
thank
you
so
much
to
easty
farm.
We
congratulate
them
on
all
their
accomplishments,
we're
so
proud
of
their
work
and
congratulations
again
and
thank
you.
D
E
E
A
Okay,
so
maggie
you
mentioned
food,
and
many
of
you
probably
already
know
this.
Our
neighborhood
was
one
of
the
hardest
hit
during
covid
and
health
crisis
turned
into
an
economic
crisis,
because
then
you
couldn't
go
to
work
and
work
was
how
you
made
ends
meet
and
now
you
can't
make
ends
meet,
and
so
now
you
can't
buy
food
can't
buy,
can
pay.
Rent
people
were
in
dire
straits
right
off
the
bat
right,
so
we're
keeping
people
in
such
vulnerable
states.
Unfortunately,
in
this
rich
nation,
and
that
should
stop.
A
A
And
people
in
chinatown
as
well
yeah,
so
I
think
we're
we
have
to
wrap
up
here
soon.
But
I
wanted
to
say
thanks
to
everyone
here
and
quickly
have
juana
come
up
here
to
say,
speak
for
one
minute
roberto.
Can
you
come
here
as
well
to
translate?
Please
are
you
going
to
translate?
Okay,
all
right
so
come
on
over
juana,
just
just
a
few
more
minutes,
yeah.
A
Monica
is
going
to
translate
and
juana
is
a
site
manager
for
east
boston.
She
manages
a
site
called
our
garden
in
eagle
hill
and
she
harvested
all
these
flowers.
From
her
own
I
mean
our
garden
and
which,
which
she
looks
after
she's,
the
site
manager-
and
she
wanted
to
put
this
together
for
the
mayor.
Go
ahead.
Yeah
all
right.
A
Right,
all
of
that
is
harvested
in
our
garden,
yeah
yeah
yeah,
all
right
so
juana.
Would
you
like
to
say
yeah
when
I
was
a
site
manager.
Monica
is
on
the
board
of
east
farm.
Monica
is
one
of
the
founders
of
this
organization
as
well,
and
she
ran
sangeeta
here
early
on,
which
was
the
seed
for
east
farm.
So
I'm
going
to
give
the
mic
to
juana
for
quickly
say
a
few
words
and
and
monica
will
translate.
F
G
F
F
F
G
A
Quickly,
next,
thank
you
juana
for
for
making
all
those
requests.
I
didn't
tell
her
to
do
those
so
quickly.
Daisy
from
mutual
aid.
Eastie
would
like
to
say
a
few
words.
I
I
was
saying
that
ec
farm
is
not
just
about
easter
farm.
It's
about
the
community
as
a
whole,
so
we
had
a
role
to
play
in
mutual
aid.
Eastie
and
daisy
is
a
member
of
mutual
adsd.
Welcome
daisy.
H
Hi
everyone-
this
is
also
my
first
time
speaking,
so
I'm
a
little
nervous,
but
my
name
is
desi
gutierrez.
I
am
a
core
coordinator
for
the
mutual
aid
network,
which
is
a
network
of
different
organizations
and
neighbors
here
in
east
boston
that
we
support
each
other.
Kanan
mentioned
a
lot
of
what
I
was
going
to
say,
but
as
a
resident
and,
of
course,
being
part
of
the
mutual
aid.
I
am
so
grateful
to
have
a
space
like
this
in
east
boston,
not
only
because
it
it's
really
amazing.
H
As
someone
who
lives
in
ec,
I
I
feel
so
grateful
to
like
have
support
and
know
that
I'm
not
gonna
go
hungry
with
places
like
this,
and
with
that
being
said,
I
do
have
an
ass
for
you,
mr
jamie,
and
that
is
that
and
boston
in
general.
I,
my
hope
is
to
see
boston,
work,
hand
in
hand
with
organizations
here
in
east,
boston
and
all
throughout
boston
and
to
work
intentionally
and
changing
things
and
support
economically.
H
A
Thank
you
daisy,
so
that
request
was
to
for
the
city
to
work
with
small
grassroots
organizations,
and
some
of
those
may
be
ad
hoc
community
organizations
that
are
not
registered
that
are
not
501c3
but
like.
I
was
referring
to
earlier.
That
may
have
the
passion,
but
don't
have
the
technical
know-how
or
the
financial
capability
to
do
things
so
that
request
from
daisy.
I
appreciate
that
for
the
city
to
reach
down
into
the
grassroots
and
help
the
organizations
that
are
tiny,
tiny,
but
punching
way
about
their
weight
and
doing
a
lot
of
good
in
the
community.
A
I
also
wanted
to
repeat
one
of
the
requests
from
that
that
juana
made.
So
you
saw
you
see
this
project,
it
feels
it's
nice
and
green.
You
know
it's
growing
food
and
then
it's
puts
rainwater
in
the
ground,
which
is
nice
and
food
composting,
food
waste
composting
and
some
education.
All
of
that
is
great,
but
when
you
see
the
other
site,
when
it's
all
done
you're
going
to
be
mighty
impressed,
you
know
why
this
is
one
of
your
priorities.
A
Thank
you,
shawnee
and,
and
chief
chief
dylan's
guidance,
so
that
that,
in
that
space,
six
chelsea
terrace
we're
gonna
build
a
geothermal
greenhouse.
So
it's
gonna
be
a
greenhouse
but
green.
If
you
know
greenhouses,
they're,
usually
powered
by
propane
and
propane's
a
fossil
fuel
right.
So
we're
trying
to
find
a
way
to
not
use
the
fuel
of
the
past
and
push
us
towards
the
push
ourselves
towards
the
future.
So
we're
going
to
use
something
renewable.
A
That
site,
unfortunately,
is
behind
a
couple
of
large
billboards.
So
solar
is
out,
and
we
can't
put
a
big
wind
turbine
in
the
middle
of
east
boston.
Can
we
no
probably
not
so
so
the
our
option?
The
third
option
is
the
ground
and
under
a
certain
level,
certain
depth.
The
ground
always
maintains
a
certain
amount
of
heat.
So
if
you
can
reach
down
to
that
level
and
circulate
water
or
some
sort
of
like
a
refrigerant
type
type
fuel
you're
going
to
get
it
warmed
up
when
it
goes
down
to
that
depth.
A
When
it
comes
back
out,
it'll
still
be
warm
and
you
can
extract
that
warmth
using
a
heat
exchanger
and
that's
how
we're
going
to
heat
the
greenhouse
in
the
winter
and
in
the
summertime.
Guess
what
that
low
temperature
will
still
be
that
constant
low
in
the
in
the
high
50s.
So
the
same
mechanism
can
be
used
to
cool
the
space,
so
we
can
have
cool
spaces
in
the
summer,
not
just
warm
spaces
in
the
winter,
but
also
cool
space
in
the
summer,
and
this
will
be
right
next
to
a
school.
A
So
that
project,
because
we're
doing
this
in
a
post-covet
market
when
contractors
are
all
booked
up
material
costs,
are
all
going
up.
It's
a
state-funded
project,
but
we
feel
like
we're
in
the
corporate
world
because
we're
already
beyond
budget
and
behind
schedule
and
we
barely
started
the
project.
So
that
request
is
going
to
come
back
to
the
city
and
the
state
as
a
little
bit
more
funding
to
bridge
that
budget
gap.
But
at
the
end
of
that
project
is
going
to
be
so
exciting.
A
It's
already
exciting
to
do
and
think
about
it,
but
because
we
try
to
envision
what
we're
trying
to
do
right.
But
when
it's
done,
everybody
will
be
able
to
see
and
we're
hoping
that
that
will
be
an
inspiration
for
people
and
it
will
be
a
model
it'll
be
an
example.
So
people
can
know
this
sort
of
thing
doesn't
have
to
be
in
the
future.
A
We
can
do
it
now
and
that's
that's
what
we're
going
for
and
we're
hoping
for
all
of
your
support
here,
and
I
want
to
ask
for
one
big
round
of
applause,
especially
for
everybody.
I
didn't
name
and
there's
so
many
people
here
that
have
worked
very
hard
and
if
I
start
naming
it
you're
going
to
be
here
for
a
while.
So
there's
a
lot
of
people
here
who
have
put
their
heart
and
soul
into
this
work.
So
a
big
round
of
applause
for
everyone.
A
Thank
you
again,
everyone
for
coming.
Thank
you,
mayor,
jenny.
Thank
you,
councillor,
edwards.
Thank
you,
maggie,
thank
you
jess,
and
thank
you,
daisy
and
juana
for
speaking,
and
thank
you
harry
and
kerry
for
putting
all
this
together
and
oh
she's
walking
away
now.
Everybody
knows
you
come
on.
You
can't
escape
that
easily
and
so
carry
wave,
yes,
yeah
and
so
and
and
once
again,
thanks
to
chief
dylan
and
shani
for
creating
these
spaces
and
working
with
small
organizations
like
ourselves
to
transfer
this
property
into
communities
ownership.
A
So
we
can
improve
these
communities
with
a
sense
of
ownership
of
the
land
and
our
relationship
with
others.
Thank
you
again
feel
free
to
have
some
chai
and
some
snacks
and
stick
around
mingle
get
more
pictures
with
all
the
folks
here.
Everybody
is
just
so
beautifully
today
and
if
you
have
any
questions
happy
to
answer
and
I'll
hand
the
mic
back
to
you
just
in
case,
would
you,
okay,
all
right
we're
all
set?
Thank.
