Tuesday Tips and Tricks

Lessons from Nature
Alder trees are the first plants to grow in places that have been damaged by landslides, fires, and other environmental disasters. They rebuild the soil and create a foundation for a forest home where plants and animals can thrive. They create a healthy community despite disruption, stress, and disasters.
 How can we learn from Nature? Be an Alder in your community!
Day to day, seek out ways to support others in times of need and use your skills and gifts to help others.
Being prepared to care for you and your loved ones with an emergency preparedness kit, extra food and water, is one way to be an Alder, a foundation for others to thrive, in disasters and emergencies.
Let the Alder remind you that you can help others thrive by being a strong foundation for someone today and in emergencies!
