We give thanks for their remembrance which connects us to traditional knowledge passed down from our Grandmothers and Grandfathers.  \nIt is in gratitude to the Mother Earth that we honor the cycle of life through the harvest of the Amaranth. We honor the connection we have to the soil\, water\, sun\, animals\, birds\, insects\, and ancestors. We continue to strengthen our ties to the Earth and our communities as we recall our ancestors’ knowledge.  From sowing to harvest\, we are in harmony with all living things. \nThis is a time where all the people that Qachuu Aloom and The Gardens Edge have planted with can come together in celebration and reciprocate the gift of Amaranth seeds back to the Elders of Qachuu Aloom.  \nThe seeds grown from your garden will make their journey back to Guatemala with the Elders and will be planted in the Qachuu Aloom garden\, as a symbol of our deep connection\, interdependence\, collective resistance and hope for the future. \nSchedule\n1 pm Garden is open\, holding space for the community.  \n1:30 pm Elders Arrive    \n2 pm Welcome  \n2:15 pm Honoring the Elders gifting of the Seeds\, please come early if carrying Amaranth seeds to be  \n        gifted to the elders.  \n3:30 pm Preparation of the altar \n4:00 pm Ceremony  \n5:40 pm Pot Luck Dinner\, please bring a dish to share   \nPlease come with Amaranth seeds and stories from your harvest to share with the Elders. These Amaranth seeds carry the stories of each of the gardens where they have grown; they hold the memories from each site planted\, whether an urban center or high in the mountains\, wide-open spaces or the crack between the sidewalk. The seeds and stories will travel with the elders back to Rabinal\, Guatemala to be planted in Qachuu Aloom’s Solidarity Garden in 2020.  \nAmaranth grows wild\, it resits\, it adapts\, it feeds animals\, insects\, and people. But it does not need people to thrive\, we need Amaranth to thrive and from the Amaranth\, we learn how to live in harmony with the elements.

This exhibition will feature an interactive installation including a series of collage prints\, audio soundscape\, video\, a sculptural installation of Seed Stories\, a creative reading and exchange station\, and a special edition of the SeedBroadcast agri-Culture Journal. \nThe exhibition will include performance events and gatherings with community partners to cultivate and broadcast seed resiliency. \nIn 2016-17\, SeedBroadcast partnered with Native Seeds/SEARCH and Northern New Mexico indigenous seed savers\, acequia farmers\, urban-indigenous permaculturists\, and youth to creatively explore Seed Resilience in the face of Climate Change. We began this project in 2016 with funding from Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Climate Change Solutions Fund and have since continued this important work with the support from many other organizations and individuals. \nDuring the initial process\, we followed four farm projects over the course of an entire year\, from spring through summer and autumn harvest. Over these seasons\, we interviewed these farmers and community members and used photography and audio interviews to record a multimedia timeline of seasonal happenings: from seeds\, to cultivating\, planting\, tending\, drought\, locusts\, hail\, labor\, struggle\, harvest\, and community. \nSeedBroadcast encourages communities to keep local agri-Culture alive and vibrant through working together in creative and inspiring ways. Spending time with people on their farms\, in their gardens\, at seed exchanges\, and at community gatherings\, SeedBroadcast digs deep into the oft-unheard stories of local agri-Culture producing community-based projects\, art installations\, dialogues\, and creative actions. Interdisciplinary collaboration is a founding principal of SeedBroadcast activities where cohorts from diverse backgrounds work together as critical partners of inquiry and creative production.

The tiny amaranth seed now holds memory from Guatemala and La Madera.  The amaranth grown and cared for at Owl Peak Farm will be prepared in a community meal by Qachuu Aloom and the Shed Project. We will have a seed cleaning demo and music to great you as you arrive at the dinner.\n\n\nThe Shed Project is a small scale nomadic wild plant based dinner project celebrating nature and the fleeting of time\, and the land we inhabit.  The Shed Project and Qachuu Aloom are both rooted in the health of the community\, and land while honoring traditional knowledge.\nFrom the organizers:\nMaya farmers from The Qachuu Aloom Association in Guatemala are sharing their Amaranth seeds across the Americas and beyond. Through passing on the Amaranth seeds we build connections\, friendships\, and a movement. Each of the amaranth fields we help plant in Guatemala\, New Mexico\, and California bring us new lessons and connections. \nIn Guatemala we first experienced amaranth through the Kaqchikel Maya women. They taught the Maya Achi women of Qachuu Aloom how to plant\, cook\, and prepare amaranth. As the women planted\, they shared stories of hardship\, war\, and motherhood. Among tears shed\, there was also much laughter. Years later the women of Qachuu Aloom still plant Amaranth-hundreds of fields are spread across 24 villages. We use this ancient grain that was once abundant in Maya culture in our maternal health project and it brings income\, improves nutrition\, and re-connects families. \nQachuu Aloom families continue to share this seed. Their journey has taken them to the pueblos of New Mexico\, Arizona\, and California. Each Amaranth Field we plant is used for farmer-to-farmer exchanges\, community workshops\, and events around seeds\, plants\, food\, and sustainable practices. Amaranth fields are statements of our connection to each other\, the land\, and the food we labor to grow. Seed sharing embodies our personal and collective agency. \nWe hope these events will be a time to reawaken the excitement and awe that comes from witnessing what germinates from a tiny seed and time spent together. The experience of growing these seeds together is the experience of being stronger together in this time of urgent need for change\, and it can start with just a few seeds.

We will be preparing recipes with Amaranth greens.  Come learn how to cook this extremely healthy plant. \nFrom the organizers:\nMaya farmers from The Qachuu Aloom Association in Guatemala are sharing their Amaranth seeds across the Americas and beyond. Through passing on the Amaranth seeds we build connections\, friendships\, and a movement. Each of the amaranth fields we help plant in Guatemala\, New Mexico\, and California bring us new lessons and connections. \nIn Guatemala we first experienced amaranth through the Kaqchikel Maya women. They taught the Maya Achi women of Qachuu Aloom how to plant\, cook\, and prepare amaranth. As the women planted\, they shared stories of hardship\, war\, and motherhood. Among tears shed\, there was also much laughter. Years later the women of Qachuu Aloom still plant Amaranth-hundreds of fields are spread across 24 villages. We use this ancient grain that was once abundant in Maya culture in our maternal health project and it brings income\, improves nutrition\, and re-connects families. \nQachuu Aloom families continue to share this seed. Their journey has taken them to the pueblos of New Mexico\, Arizona\, and California. Each Amaranth Field we plant is used forfarmer-to-farmer exchanges\, community workshops\, and events around seeds\, plants\, food\, and sustainable practices. Amaranth fields are statements of our connection to each other\, the land\, and the food we labor to grow. Seed sharing embodies our personal and collective agency. \nWe hope these events will be a time to reawaken the excitement and awe that comes from witnessing what germinates from a tiny seed and time spent together. The experience of growing these seeds together is the experience of being stronger together in this time of urgent need for change\, and it can start with just a few seeds. \n  URL:https://gardensedge.org/event/amaranth-cooking-demo-millagro-allegro/ LOCATION:Milagro Allegro Community Farm\, 115 S.
