ACEQUIA WALK & TALK

AcequiaWalk&Talk01.jpg

You're Invited!

In collaboration with the South Valley Regional Association of Acequias (SVRAA), CESOSS hosts the Walk & Talk series with the community. 

We invite the larger community to join us in an educational morning spent sharing stories/issues related to the acequias and our community, while we take a walk along one of the South Valley acequias. 

Local community members connected to acequia and agricultural traditions are invited to lead the Walk & Talk. 

The goal is not only to learn about the powerful history of the South Valley community but also to revitalize our connection and commitment to acequia protection.
