About This Event
Join us for our May Resiliency Salon, a welcoming community gathering focused on strengthening local connection, skills-sharing, and neighbor-to-neighbor support.
🕒 Schedule
5:45–6:00 PM — Room Setup
Arrive early if you'd like to chat while I get the space ready.
6:00–6:15 PM — Resiliency Salon Projects
We’ll kick things off with a quick 15-minute update on our first 6+ months as the Resiliency Salon: celebrating what we’ve built together, reflecting on the momentum we’ve created, and grounding ourselves in the shared effort it will take to sustain and grow these projects into something even bigger.
6:15-7:00 PM — Official Meeting Begins
Join us for a casual, community-focused session on the EQIP (Environmental Quality Incentives Program) grant and how it can support your projects; especially if you're a small farmer or land steward. Our member Caleb will share insights on how to access funding for things like high tunnels and other improvements.
7:00-7:30 PM — Needs & Wants: Let’s Make the Time Bank Work
We’ll shift into a short, guided workshop on how to identify what you can offer and what you need and how to plug that into the time bank effectively. This is where we connect the dots: EQIP can help fund projects, and the time bank can help you find people to actually get the work done.
7:30–8:30 PM — Salon Hour (Time Banking Social!)
Mix, mingle, and open discussion with neighbors. This time we're focusing on a time-banking social where you can connect with neighbors, trade skills, and line up the hands-on help to bring projects to life.
Who Should Attend?
- Curious neighbors
- People interested in community resilience
- Skill-sharers & repair enthusiasts
- Anyone who wants to connect locally
Everyone is welcome.
