SUMMARY:August/September CFRW Book Club Meeting
DESCRIPTION:August/September CFRW Book Club Meeting\n\nSeptember 26 @ 10:30am\n\nJoin us for our August/September 2020 CFRW Book Club Meeting! Storm water fills our creeks and rivers that are often polluted with pesticides\, so this is the perfect time for our this month’s selection\, Pesticides and Pollution by Dr. Mellanby. We’ll have a discussion via Zoom on Saturday\, September 26\, 2020 at 10:30AM. Join us here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/9617005052 \n“In Pesticides and Pollution\, Dr. Mellanby examines the problems of pollution of air\, land\, river\, and the sea\, by herbicides\, pesticides\, sewage\, industrial effluents\, gases\, radiation\, leakages\, over-drainage\, mistakes and mismanagement\, in Britain to-day. He sets out to placate neither farmers nor naturalists\, but to explain in each case what is happening\, to point to both dangers and practical necessities\, and to discuss what steps should be taken.” \nDr. Mellanby was the Director of the Nature Conservancy’s Monk Wood Experimental Station and was the head of the Entomology department at Rothamsted in the UK. Rothamsted Research\, known as Rothamsted Experimental Station and then the Institute of Arable Crops Research is one of the oldest agricultural research institutions in the world. For many years\, Dr. Mellanby did medical entomology research in Britain and the tropics. He also started the journal Environmental Pollution in 1970 which led to the honorable  ” Mellanby Review Award”  that is biennially awarded to distinguished scientists. \nCopies of Pesticides and Pollution by Kenneth Mellanby are “out of print” and will not be available to purchase at Pomegranate Books. You can purchase the e-book version from Barnes & Noble\, Kobo or Amazon\, or purchase a used copy online.

SUMMARY:October/November Book Club
DESCRIPTION:October/November CFRW Book Club Meeting\n\nNovember 28 @ 10:30am\nJoin us for our October/November 2020 CFRW Book Club Meeting! The War on the EPA: America’s Endangered Environmental Protections by William M. Alley and Rosemarie Alley is our book selection for October/November 2020. The War on the EPA presents current issues concerning PFAS “forever chemicals”  and the EPA’s role in the quality of our drinking water. This book is guaranteed to be a page-turner… \n\n“The War on the EPA examines the daunting hurdles facing the EPA in its critical roles in drinking water\, air and water pollution\, climate change\, and toxic chemicals. This book takes the reader on a journey into some of today’s most pressing environmental problems: toxic “forever chemicals” known as PFAS\, pervasive agricultural pollution\, dead zones in the Gulf of Mexico\, and widespread air and water pollution from use of fossil fuels. Delving into the science\, politics\, and human dimension of these and other problems\, the book illustrates the challenges of regulation\, how today’s war on science is undermining the scientific foundation upon which the agency’s legitimacy rests\, and why a strong U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is more important than ever before.” \nPomegranate Books will have copies of The War on the EPA available for purchase soon\, and CFRW Book Club members receive a 15% discount. Thanks to everyone who participated in any of our discussions via Zoom during this pandemic! North Carolina has entered Phase 3 of COVID-19 restrictions and our next meeting will be in-person and socially distanced with chairs 6ft apart outside of Pomegranate Books! Book club was created and is facilitated by CFRW Board Member Chantay Allen. \n

SUMMARY:December/January Book Club
DESCRIPTION:December/January CFRW Book Club Meeting\n\nJanuary 23 @ 10:30am\nJoin us for our December/January CFRW Book Club Meeting! This time\, the book is real fishy because it’s all about the British Columbia commercial fishing industry!–It features halibut\, black cod and fish thought to be extinct! So\, we hope you’re ready to put your hooks into Still Fishin’: The BC Fishing Industry Revisited by Alan Haig-Brown. \n“It is generally known that the West Coasts once-great commercial fishing industry has fallen on hard times\, but as Alan Haig-Brown demonstrates in this new book\, reports of its demise are exaggerated. A veteran of the industry himself\, Haig-Brown here offers a state of the industry report\, discovering pockets of surprising activity among the vistas of closed processing plants\, downsized fleets and corporate concentration. The Ray Phillips family of Pender Harbour continue to support a second generation by fishing halibut and black cod. Albert Radil and his two brothers have found success trawling hake in Queen Charlotte Sound. Seiner John Lenic is taking advantage of the miraculous reappearance in BC waters of the pilchard\, once thought extinct. Former Vietnamese boat person Lon Truong hopes to finance a triumphant return to the Mekong Delta by trawling BC shrimp. The Assu brothers of Campbell River still seine chum salmon in the same Johnstone Strait tide rip their father used to fish\, as did many generations of Assu ancestors before them\, but they have to work fast to get their work done in the near-impossible 12-hour time limit set by the DFO. In Haig-Brown’s story of the west coast fishery\, boats get equal time with people and fish. He laments the destruction of some historic old seiners\, just as he relishes the preservation of an old Finn Slough gillnetter named the Eva and approves the activities of fishboat superfan Randy Reifel\, who uses his considerable wealth to buy up endangered boats and keep them in working order. Is the whole fishing industry now on life support? It seems to be headed that way\, but this book offers many practical and persuasive reasons why it doesn’t have to be.” \nPomegranate Books will have copies of Still Fishin’ available for purchase\, and CFRW Book Club members receive a 15% discount. Thanks to everyone who participated in any of our discussions via Zoom during this pandemic! This next meeting will be in-person and socially distanced with chairs 6ft apart outside of Pomegranate Books! (Please bring your own outdoor chair.) Book club was created and is facilitated by CFRW Board Member Chantay Allen.

SUMMARY:Rescheduled - February 2nd Saturday Cleanup
DESCRIPTION:Our 2nd Saturday Cleanup was postponed due to rain\, but we will be back at it this weekend instead\, on February 20th from 9-11am! Due to the rain washing away much of the litter that had been present in Burnt Mill Creek\, we have changed the location of our cleanup. We will be cleaning up the railroad tracks from the Railroad Right-of-Way from 3rd St to 17th. This is a long stretch to cleanup\, and along railroad tracks no less\, so it is more suitable for adults!

SUMMARY:March First Saturday Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Join us via Zoom to hear from Kyle Stenersen of Humble Roots Farm\, who will talk about Implications and Applications of Growing Organically\n \nKyle is a first generation farmer\, raising organic produce and pasture raised meats and eggs. He and his wife Katelyn and their four children live on and farm 55 acres of leased land in southeastern Pender County. After graduating from NC State in 2010 with a degree in Horticultural Science\, he and his wife moved to Burlington NC to live and work on a farm that a friend owned. “Seeing a seed sprout\, being able to tend the fragile plant to maturity and then bring it to market to exchange for money\, which would let us do it all over again and all the while enriching our environment\, making people healthier\, and financially providing for our family was a new concept for me\, and it ignited a passion that’s still very much alive.”\n \nRegistration Information to Follow
