A day to celebrate the unique dynamism of our bioregion and movement.
To Celebrate Cascadia Day, we are inviting anyone that feels so moved to share a picture, poem, song, story or short video in this thread that helps to share something of the essence of this amazing place we call home.
We are officially debuting Regenerate Cascadia in collaboration with Design School for Regenerating Earth and Regenerative Communities Network.
The Department of Bioregion is super excited for the release of the Cascadia Field Guide: Art, Ecology, Poetry, being released by Mountaineers Books March, 1st. For those not familiar, in the first ever ‘Cascadia’ field guide, local experts, poets and artists are working to create a literary field guide for the Cascadia bioregion.
The Department of Bioregion was proud to be featured in a new article The Cascadia Region - Fun and Facts by the Kelowna Capital News on October 13th, 2022 by BW Uzelmann. Read the whole article at: https://canadatoday.news/bc/the-cascadia-region-fun-and-facts-kelowna-capital-news-55464/
The Department of Bioregion is excited to announce a partnership with the Cascadia Association Football Federation to help CAFF hit the field running in 2023. A ton of great organizing has been going on, and they are looking at a new run of kits, and fielding both a women’s and men’s Cascadia team in 2023 for friendlies and CONIFA matches.
When we organize, we win.
Since November 3rd, we have had more than 1200 people sign up to join our Cascadia Election Response Network. More than just about any one candidate or election, we see this as a pivotal moment in history when we must start preparing networks of mutual aid, local resilience, training and preparation for times of emergency, and if ever needed, civil disobedience. Be it an emergency, man made or natural, or fighting against the rising tide of fascism, climate change, economic inequity, systemic oppression or misinformation, we will be ready.
These types of networks don’t just happen. Historically, it is often the result of serious training. Time and again, we have demonstrated the power that unified, nonviolent, mass-action can have in the face of illegitimate regimes seeking to subvert the will of the people.

When you join, use the channel browser on the left hand hand side to find your local neighborhood group, or to request one if it already hasn’t been found. Join our resiliency network, and use this as a space to plug your own groups and resources you find important that you feel are bioregional, local and ethical.
We are excited to announce that we are creating several work groups from our Envision Cascadia Conference, and would love to invite you to join us. We had more than 150 people register for 8 different sessions that took place over 2 weeks in which people gathered to explore how we can best build the Cascadia movement, and we are very excited to keep this momentum going.
After Washington, Oregon, and California governors announced the launch of a Western States Pact in the face of a federal government unwilling to act on COVID-19 relief, #Cascadia , #Calexit and #Secession quickly began trending on twitter and other social media platforms.
Inspired by a FC Geopolitic Twitter thread documenting the Cascadia Football Team and their first appearance at the CONIFA World Cup in London in 2018, online sports magazine Caviar released a wonderful article on Sports and Bioregionalism.
