The Ecological Culture Initiative, is a new organization devoted to restoring the components of the Hampton Bays community in a sustainable way.
The group wants to serve as a model for an alternative to what they call destructive land use practices and growth-based development, damaging the health of the local aquifer, soil, and waterways.
They have several projects underway including a seed-sharing program what will launch this spring at the local library and the screening of a film about seeds Thursday evening January 19.
Francesca Rheannon and Tony Ernst talked with Marc Fasanella, director of the Ecological Culture Initiativelast week.
