Learn, Share & Exchange Strategies

Join us for the launch of our series on Conversations on Resilience with people who are already strengthening resilience to climate change for themselves, their families and their communities.

Amanda Stephenson will share how she and her family are engaging their community in Southeast Washington, DC in eating healthier fresh foods, supporting local farmers, increasing their community's ability to adapt to shocks and stressors, and supporting one another in staying healthy and thriving. Find out more about Amanda at The Fresh Food Factory.

Joan and Marc Plisko will share how they grow food, enhance the soil and restore the ecosystem in their garden and yard, support local farmers, ensure that they are prepared for power outages, and engage their community in Baltimore. Find out more about Joan and Marc at Plisko Sustainable Solutions, LLC.

Dorcas Robinson will help us to understand what resilience is, guide us in taking an inventory on how resilient we are now, and identify next steps we can take to become more resilient in our own lives. Find out more about Dorcas at Dunia Moja Consulting.

These conversations are sponsored by DIY Green. We will learn together, share our stories, and connect as a growing community of people taking practical action. Join us as we shape and grow the resilience movement together!
