<div>Our farmer, friend, mentor, Esalen chef &amp; true Pheonix Rising, Charlie Cascio needs help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Charlie lost Sweetwater Farm—his home, livelihood, and dream— nine years ago to the Soberanes Fire. Since then, he's been living in a canvas yurt that was once apprentice housing. Years of cold and damp conditions have caused his health to decline. Winter is coming, and it's urgent that Charlie has a safe place to live before there's snow on the ground. His friends are stepping in to raise funds to build him a simple, fireproof home.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every dollar will go directly to construction materials and labor.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A heartfelt thank you for your generous support in giving back to someone who has given so much-- teaching hundreds to farm sustainably and to care about our earth.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and gratitude,
</div>

<div>Friends of Charlie Cascio
