Earth First! 2014 Organizer’s Conference and Winter Rendezvous

Posted on the 20 November 2013 by Earth First! Newswire @efjournal

Everglades Earth First! is excited to be hosting the Earth First! Organizer’s Conference and Winter Rendezvous, February 19 – 24!  For those of you who attended the last OC, remember how cold southern Ohio was?  Well don’t fret, the 2014 OC will be held in the sunny subtropics, in the swamps, the land of the alligator and the gar, the cypress, the slash pines—the area known by its colonizers as Florida.  Panthers, hand sized spiders, bird sized mosquitos, saw grass, palmettos, pythons—its the one and only Everglades!

The exact location will be announced as we get closer to the date. There will be strategizing as the Earth First! movement, storytelling of past campaigns and actions as well as an exciting array of workshops, skill shares, and discussions.
