Learn Everyday Words in Indigenous Languages

Outdoor Learning Online Courses

Indigenous languages carry connections to lands, ancestors, traditions, and contain ecological knowledge crucial for sustainable living, medicinal practices, and traditional storytelling, enriching our collective wisdom.

“By supporting Indigenous language revitalization efforts, we not only preserve linguistic diversity but also uphold Indigenous Peoples’ fundamental rights to their languages and cultures.” - Outdoor Learning website.

MARCH 30: CELEBRATE CESAR CHAVEZ DAY - “INVISIBLE VALLEY” movie

Celebrate Cesar Chavez Day with the screening of Invisble Valley at the Palm Theater in San Luis Obispo. This intimate documentary chronicles the daily lives of families living in California’s Coachella Valley, tracing years of resilience, hardship, and hope within a largely unseen community. Through patient observation, it captures the realities of migrant labor, education, and generational ambition in a region that feeds the nation while remaining overlooked.

The workshops will introduce permaculture concepts about food, water, shelter, and energy ….. all basic to our survival…..but re-envisioned with a regenerative systems approach to respecting our natural resources while providing for our ecosystem, economy and equity.

The dates align with the two equinoxes (March 21st and September 19th) and the two solstices (June 20th and December 19th)
