It's time for a whole new way of doing school People are born systems-thinkers. Education has the power to encourage our innate connection with the complex world, yet instead our schools focus on creating a workforce educated just enough to feed the capitalist workforce pipeline. Reminiscent of and building further on John Taylor Gatto's education critiques, The End of Education as We Know It is for people who want to create schools that teach how to live in harmony with each other, with Earth, and all Earth holds.Readers will understand when and how to engage in disruptive actions, manage system tensions, support child and adult learning, and use these skills to design whole new approaches to schooling. Far more than a call to education-reform-as-usual, Ida Rose Florez's inspiring critique:Provides tools to explore patterns in education and influence patterns that lead to changeGives readers specific skills for working in complex systems, whether with a group of children, a contentious school board, or state or provincial governmentsHelps readers reimagine schools as places where communities learn together in a whole new way.This clarion call to action rings a bell for teachers, parents, grandparents, educators, and policymakers to challenge the outdated paradigm of coercion and exploitation that shapes our current schools. It's time to build a new educational model based on a resilient and regenerative future.

A new and ancient story about perennial nut trees, our ecological role as humans, and the future of foodThe day Elspeth Hay learned that we can eat acorns, stories she'd believed her whole life began to unravel.Until then she'd always believed we must grow our staple foods in farmed fields-the same fields wreaking havoc on our land, air, and water. But all over the Northern Hemisphere, Hay learned, humans once grew our staple foods in forest gardens centered on perennial nut trees: oaks, chestnuts, and hazelnuts. In Feed Us with Trees, Hay brings us along as she gets to know dozens of nut growers, scientists, Indigenous knowledge-keepers, researchers, and food professionals-and discovers that in tending these staple trees, we once played a vital environmental role as one of Earth's keystone species.Feed Us with Trees is Hay's hopeful manifesto about a brighter, more abundant future-and a critical look at the long-held stories we'll need to rewrite to build it. It will appeal to environmentalists, regenerative farmers, permaculture enthusiasts, agroforesters, locavores, and anyone hungry for a more holistic, nutrient-dense diet rooted in wild foods and ancient knowledge.
