Namibia is BIG: the Spitzkoppe, (German for “pointed dome”) is a group of granite boulders rising dramatically out of the flat Namib Desert in “the middle of nowhere”. Because tourists visit for the remarkable geology and the night skies, a small, rough, settlement has grown up.

Colony Farm Regional Park
Coquitlam/Port Coquitlam, BC Canada
Here is just a little glimpse of some of the things you might see when visiting the Colony Farm Community Gardens! ♥
There are 550 individual plots as well as a berry border, small orchard, tool sheds, a pagoda, lawns, a food bank garden and an area for community group plots.
The gardens are a wonderful way to enjoy nature, see organic growing techniques in action and get ideas for home gardening.
The fruits, vegetables and flowers grown in the gardens belong to gardeners.
Bleary-eyed, we cringed as we flicked on the light switch we had just turned off a few short hours before. We were staying in Immokalee, Florida at the house of Lucas Benitez, a long-time farmworker organizer who on the eve of a week-long protest tour from Boston to Tampa still took the time relate to us how it all began fifteen years ago. He had gone to the asphalt expanse of parking lots where workers wait in the pre-dawn haze to be hired as day laborers in the fields and began by calling a general strike. Benitez and others then proceeded to hold a 30-day fast, pressuring the tomato growers to pay their workers a living wage.
Fifteen years later, though a number of significant victories have been won, the Coalition of Immokalee Workers, or CIW, (a group that represents some 4,000 farmworkers) continues their struggle with that same initial passion and energy. We arrived at the newly-constructed community center and CIW office to find a weeks of planning frantically come to fruition as CIW members emerged from the dark, muggy night and the buses were loaded.

Settled primarily by settlers from Texas and the southern states, Corn Hill was one of the earliest communities in Williamson County. John E. King, county judge from 1858 to 1860, named it for the home he built on a hill and nearby cornfield in 1852. The dispersed agricultural community was the first stop on the stage line running from Georgetown to Fort Gates (Coryell County).
A post office opened in 1855 and by the 1860s, an influx of new residents settled here. In 1878, George G. Grant established Corn Hill Academy male and Female School, built on land donated by Judge King. It thrived and in 1886 moved to a new two-story building with four classrooms, a bell tower and an auditorium, which provided meeting space fro local church services. By 1893, a public school opened as part of Corn Hill Independent School District.
By the end of the 19th century, Corn Hill had a saddle club, several churches, two local cotton gins, Corn Hill College, fraternal lodges and school organizations. By the early 1900s, community residents became active in Populist politics and in the Farmers’ Union. Industrial activity in the early 1900s included the Corn Hill and Gravis Telephone Company and a waterworks; a planned interurban to Bartlett never materialized.
The settlement began to decline in 1909 when the Bartlett Western Railway bypassed two miles to the north, establishing the town of Jarrell. Steam engines helped move homes and businesses to the new townsite, and other moved to the village of New Corn Hill, but many residents chose to remain here. Today, the dispersed Corn Hill settlement survives as a reminder of the area’s early agrarian heritage. (2007) (Marker No. 14183)
4 May 2017. Maban: A Sudanese refugee cooks for the the Community Night Watchers in Doro refugee camp, South Sudan, on May 4, 2017.
Community Night Watchers were created in 2014 by UNHCR in coordination with the refugee community to reduce the number incidents at night in Doro camp, where there are more than 50,000 refugees. The camp has 50 Watchers, all Sudanese refugees, who regularly report thefts and disputes. They try to contain the incidents and refer them later to the local authorities and the police. They also identify lost children and take them back to their houses.
