Watch the live Q & A with Clare DuBois, founder of Treesisters October 8th @ 5 pm (Pacific)

Join Devaa Haley Mitchell in conversation with Clare DuBois, founder of Treesisters for a live Q&A called For The Love of Trees! During the dialogue, they’ll be discussing some of these themes: Why planting trees is so fundamental to healing our planet. What other practical actions can we each take to be the best possible stewards of our planet. How nature connectedness can transform your life and leadership. Why women are more disproportionately impacted by climate change than men. How the funds donated to TreeSisters are spent. Lastly, any answers to YOUR questions!

    I'm so glad to participate in this EcoChallenge, something near and dear to my heart! Each year for the past 5 years I've been challenging myself to grow more and more of my own food, and share the harvest with friends and family.  This year with the help of family has been the best harvest so far. We also trade with neighbors for fresh eggs.
