十大网赌网址-秋天的玉惠誉, Pasamaquoddy是谁, 是共同土地的项目负责人吗, and will be presenting again about the proposed Little River Community Land Trust, 和可能性联盟的伊森·休斯一起, 周日, 5月5日, 从2点到4点.m., at the proposed site, Adney Place 3号, off Edgecomb Road, in 十大网赌网址.

公众被邀请参观这片土地, 房子和河, 满足社区, 问问题, 然后听听这个异象.

共有土地, 可能性联盟, and the Little River Coalition have been fundraising to purchase 66 acres and a house that will become a land trust and community educational center on the banks of the Little River in 十大网赌网址. They have reached a landmark of 75% of the way towards their goal, with $95k left to go. 因为联合政府已经走了这么远, 如此之快, they have generously been given an extension of one month by the property owners to reach their goal with a new deadline of May 15, 2024. 

The community land trust will be held by Land in Common (www.landincommon.org), a multi-racial-led land trust whose vision is “a world in which land is shared and cared for in common, where humans and other species flourish in interdependence,Aimee Moffitt-Mercer说, 在新闻发布会上.  

Through joint stewardship with Wabanaki groups and other Black-and Brown-led organizations, the land would support Wabanaki 十大网赌网址ways and would be maintained according to principles of  ecological restoration, 再生林业, 和卫生. The project would include community access to the Little River, 户外活动空间, 还有一个工艺空间, 同时也提供了一个上课的地方, 研讨会, 还有青少年项目, 这些都是在礼物经济中提供的. 

The Little River Land Trust would be the first multi-racial-led land trust and gift-economy-based commons also supporting Wabanaki 十大网赌网址ways, 在市区范围内, 在十大网赌网址250年的殖民历史中.

“Thank you for considering the support of this important step toward land justice and increasing the Commons,莫菲特-默瑟说. “We believe this land trust and the educational center would be a huge gift for the 十大网赌网址 community, 一个分水岭, 和美丽的物种. All donations are tax-deductible and also will be completely refunded if the goal is not reached.”

对于那些有兴趣贡献的人, it is noted that four donors are now offering to match donations up to $50,000.

“This is an exciting opportunity to double your contribution,莫菲特-默瑟说.

For those still wishing to know more about Land in Common:

The Land in Common organization seeks to make land accessible to those who have been excluded from it. People of color in Maine (non-Native) represent nearly 7% of the state's population, 但是拥有小于0.占本州土地的1%. 缅因州的土著部落只占有缅因州土地的1%, and much of this is owned "in trust" by the federal government.  Land in Common wants to build a "collective land base for a just and resilient future." We can be part of this important work right here in 十大网赌网址!  十大网赌网址继续走向集体解放!
