Beginning this year, we are conducting a public “Hunt for the Hickory” campaign, seeking to identify existing stands of hickory trees that have potential to be harvested for nut oil production. After locating existing hickory stands, landowners will be offered contracts to allow crews of people to clear and maintain the harvest area around the trees in the late summer, and to return in October for harvest.
Sign up HERE to stay in the know about these events and opportunities!
Save the Date!
To kick off the Hunt, on August 10-13th we will be hosting a new, immersive musical, EF! at the Dartmouth Organic Farm in Hanover, NH.
EF! brings the audience into the direct action environmental movement via an immersive performance that imagines the audience as attendees at an action camp, preparing for a blockade. This performance will be coupled with a clean up and educational activity in the same hickory tree forest where we are performing. The audience will be invited to either camp out overnight after the performance or return in the morning to participate.
