Library of Local Network

Resource Hub

Library of Local now spans 17 library sites across the watershed, lending native seed, tools, and materials where people already gather. Seed is also sold commercially, but libraries widen access and strengthen civic ties. Small grants help residents install native plantings on private land.

Regenerative Agriculture Machinery Bank

Resource Hub Peer Learning Farmer Support

To practice regenerative agriculture, specific machinery is needed, and not all farmers can afford the full range of machines required. Farmers in the area decided to create a community machinery bank, sharing equipment among members. The bank now counts 61 members, demonstrating how resource sharing enables broader adoption of regenerative practices. The cooperative combines equipment access with collaborative learning. They have developed a network for shared farming tips ("truquillos")—those little secrets that farmers share with each other when they have trust and complicity. This approach recognizes that knowledge sharing is as important as resource sharing in building a regenerative agricultural movement.
