Welcome Mama Bears

We are powerful, passionate women living in Oregon and Washington along the great Columbia River. We come together in response to our passion for Earth and its creatures and our desire to act on its behalf. Spiritually driven, engaged and grounded in our commitment to act, educate and inspire- we are women of diverse ages, backgrounds, spiritual traditions and activism- joining together in our anger and anguish over the wounds and destruction of our precious planet. 

We live in a time we can no longer deny the human impact on our planet. We live in a time we must face it and, face each other.

Come to these pages to be nurtured by story. Our stories, our planet's story.
Come to be held up by the strength of women, women who have a great basket filled with wisdom, women who come with a single fruit to share. Come to dance, to find voice, to stand tall to what is the truth of our world.

This site is a work in progress, so come visit frequently and see it grow.
