Gratitude for all that came through for last week’s Aina Days! It was a celebratory day as we received word from beloved Kiss the Ground / Big Picture Ranch community that Global Regenerative Agriculture Movement film, Groundswell, won an award at Cannes Film Festival and will be released widely on 5 June. The film is accompanied by an impact campaign, One Billion Acres, organizing global brands and communities to dedicate 1 billion acres around the globe to certified regenerative agriculture. We are happy to see our relatives all over the globe coming together in Unity and Action! We are grateful our elders and great teachers Dr. Vandana Shiva and Sadhguru, based in North and South India, respectively, are part of this film. We look forward to growing the movement and learning more about One Billion Acres’ Certified Regenerative certification.

Big up to all the people and organizations around the globe involved with the regenerative agriculture, regenerative economy, Just Transition and related spiritual, cultural, civil and social movements — may this recognition further connect, lift up and move us forward to New Worlds of Peace, Love, Joy, Balance and Gratitude.
Grateful to connect with Rebecca and Josh Tickell, the directors of Groundswell, after reading and watching Kiss the Ground in 2018 — a big inspiration for Pico Roots Revolutionary Garden in Santa Monica, California / Tongva & Chumash lands and our continuing regenerative efforts here on the Big Island in Puna, Hawaii.
Join us for Aina Day today, Thurs 4 Jun 2-6pm, and stay tuned for upcoming posts on how we got here and where we are headed with all this beautiful movement in the regenerative space ✨
