One Year In Landcare: A Practice Guide (Un Ano en el Cuidado de la Tierra: Una Guia de Practicas)
This zine outlines a series of landcare practices. Our hope is to provide inspiration for the different ways that we engage in acts of care for the land. The practices are time-based and will help you pay closer attention to the interconnectedness of place, culture, plants and rituals. This is not meant to be a plant maintenance guide, per se, rather these practices seek to broaden the ways we connect with plants, and in turn each other.
Esta publicaciĂ³n describe una serie de prĂ¡cticas de cuidado de la tierra. Nuestra esperanza es brindar inspiraciĂ³n para las diferentes formas en que podemos comprometernos en actos de cuidado para la tierra. Las prĂ¡cticas se basan en el tiempo y lo ayudarĂ¡n a prestar una atenciĂ³n mĂ¡s cercana a la interconexiĂ³n del lugar, la cultura, las plantas y sus rituales. Esto no pretende ser una guĂa de mantenimiento de plantas, sino que, estas prĂ¡cticas buscan ampliar las formas en que nos conectamos con las plantas y, a su vez, entre nosotros.
