Our Gallery contains a collection of essays, poetry, graphic arts and links to other sites that have expanded our knowledge, caught our eyes, caused us to think, and connected us to others over the years. These selections, from our our journal "Earthcare" were published from 1982 to 2009. We hope you enjoy The Gallery. CLICK HERE. Maize Project sends first grant to Oaxaca, MX (Posted 9-26-11) Mexico is the center of origin of maize. The cultural, economic, social development and diversity of maize in Mexico is of great value to humanity as a whole. The Union of Concerned Scientists to Society (UCCS) and the collective of women artists and maize (MAMAZ) is convening a forum and a series of exhibitions to discuss, analyze and disclose the current status of maize among the general public. The Scientific Forum will be held in Oaxaca Ethnobotanical Garden on September 29 and will aim to disseminate advances in our understanding of maize in Mexico and in Oaxaca and the risk the use of genetically modified varieties poses for both diversity and human health. The art exhibition will be opened between September 30 and October 1 at various forums in the city of Oaxaca. Amaterra has provided a grant to assist in these events. For more information go to our Agroecology Maize Project pages.
