SUMMARY:Winter Waters at 7 Devils Coos Bay
DESCRIPTION:We’re so excited to take part of this year’s Winter Waters festival! Here’s a not to be missed event in Coos Bay\, our own Miles Rough will be there talking about Kelp Forest Dynamics:  \nFrom Winter Waters:  \nWe’ve been so excited for the oppurtunity to do an event with 7 Devils Brewery. Deeply rooted in Oregon’s south coast\, 7 Devils takes “local” seriously\, weaving community\, craft\, and coastal pride into everything they do. From sourcing regional ingredients to uplifting farmers\, musicians\, distillers\, and artists\, they embody the spirit of the Adventure Coast and invite everyone to experience it fully. \nWhile their handcrafted ales are the heartbeat of the brewery (including their Elakha Ale using local dulse seaweed)\, 7 Devils’ commitment goes far beyond drinks. Their approach to food mirrors our own mission: honoring the coastal cornucopia and showcasing the flavors\, people\, and stories that make this place special. It’s about connections to the land\, sea\, and communit\, and creating spaces where local abundance is celebrated and shared.

SUMMARY:Big Blue Film Fest
DESCRIPTION:The beautiful film\, Sequoias of the Sea is showing at the Big Blue Film fest January 24th! \nFrom the Director: \nSequoias of the Sea by Natasha Benjamin & Ana Blanco (54:00 min.) \n“Sequoias of the Sea” tells the story of the environmental\, cultural and economic destruction impacting a Northern California town that has lost its kelp forest. It’s a deep dive into the lives of fishermen\, tribes\, scientists\, and a community working to restore a habitat devastated by a warming climate. \nKelp forests\, found along nearly a quarter of global coastlines\, are crucial climate change mitigators\, but this species is in trouble. Along the Northern California coast we have lost a striking 95% of these underwater forests. Due to a perfect storm of changing ocean conditions\, we are witnessing an ecological disaster in real time. What’s happening in the ocean is changing lives on land\, bringing fishermen\, scientists and tribe members together\, to restore this critical ecosystem and build a new blue economy. Join the movement to help the kelp! \nLINK: https://hmsc.oregonstate.edu/big-blue-film-fest/schedule-films
