Recurrent natural disasters exacerbate first responder stressors, but there is hope

For those facing tragedy, disaster and emergencies every day, stigma poses a challenge, but the importance of personal mental health care is being normalized By Brandon McCapes Special to SoCoNews
This article is part of a special series on mental health in Sonoma County. Speaking during high winds on Feb. 1, Cyndi Foreman, fire marshal and division chief at Sonoma County Fire District, said windy days didn’t used to be a trigger for people. Now, when the winds pick up like they did on that fateful October morning in 2017 — and in the years since — Sonoma County residents, including first responders, find themselves worrying about wildfires. “We just can’t seem to catch a break, and our community and first responders are feeling the chronic disaster fatigue because our fire seasons are almost year round now. We’re sitting here today during a significant wind event — February is typically a month we feel we can catch our breath,” Foreman said. “Wind, prior to 2017, didn’t trigger people’s fears about wildfires. Now, it doesn’t matter when, wind hits that nerve.” In Sonoma County, it’s hard to remember what life was like before wildfires and other natural disasters became commonplace. And while we were spared the catastrophic fires we’re used to this past fall, it’s certain that the natural disasters that have plagued the region will continue to throw our lives into upheaval and present mental health challenges in addition to physical dangers. But one group relates to recurrent trauma exacerbated by the pandemic differently than others — the group we rely on to run towards danger: first responders. Foreman said since the Tubbs and Nuns fires in 2017 — and the Kincade, Walbridge and Glass fires in the years since — the stress on first responders facing wildfires in addition to floods and other disasters has resulted in high chronic stress levels. Wildfire season has always been busy in California, with local firefighters regularly rushing around the state to battle blazes when our own communities are spared, but the more frequent and recurrent fires in Sonoma County, according to Foreman, can lead to low morale, discouragement and a sense of powerlessness “It’s our job to protect our community, and these types of events we keep encountering make us feel so powerless. We’re supposed to be there to help people, but when you know you’re up

A note about the newspaper and the future Print and online news operation to pause and reflect on sustainability of local news effort Dear readers, As we told you last week, the Healdsburg Tribune, which traces its lineage back to 1865, will print its last newsprint edition next week, on April 28, 2022. At the same time, all news operations – print and digital – will cease, including our weekly email newsletters and online news coverage for Cloverdale, Healdsburg, Windsor and West Sonoma County. Is there a future for local news
in rural Sonoma County? We certainly believe there is, but the path forward is unclear. The nonprofit Sonoma County Local News Initiative will take a break, focus on ending this phase with integrity, and labor over the spring and summer to plan a financially sustainable and locally trusted model that fills this important need. Will we be successful? We believe so, but it remains to be seen. While we pause to reflect on our future, we invite you to stay in touch. We know there is a need for quality local reporting, from youth sports, to investigative journalism, to in-depth features on your friends, family and neighbors, to deep dives into local government.
If you are a donor to this effort, please continue your support, which will allow us to meet our obligations to our employees and our vendors, most of which are locally owned businesses and to consider the future from a position of strength. Do you have a cherished memory or thought about the role the newspaper has played in your life? Take a moment and email us, at future@soconews.org. We will print as many of your messages as we can in our last edition. We’re sad about what we’re losing, but we also want to celebrate all we’ve accomplished, with your help and support. After all, the newspaper has always been about you.

As Healdsburg delves into spring, yellow mustard pops up from a carpet of greenery, buds break on grape vines and poppies and other flowers start to bloom, but spring in Healdsburg looked quite different in the mid-1900s. In Alexander Valley and throughout Healdsburg, the white blossoms of prune trees would burst out and busloads of visitors from the Bay Area would visit Healdsburg for the Prune Blossom Tour, an event that happened each year from 1961 to 1995. The event was organized by the Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce and the Russian River Farm Bureau and featured a welcome reception at the Villa Chanticleer, a 30-mile selfguided tour of the area’s blossoms and a hearty luncheon at the Alexander Valley Community Hall. “Here in Alexander Valley, before there were grapes there were prunes. The Prune Blossom Tour was held by the farm bureau, that was one of their big fundraisers,” said Susan Sheehy, whose family came to Healdsburg in the 1850s and grew prunes, and later on, grapes. The Healdsburg prune dates back to 1846 when Cyrus Alexander first planted prune trees in the valley that now bears his name. From then on, several more trees were planted and Healdsburg eventually became known as the “buckle of the prune belt for Sonoma County,” according to an article in the March 20, 1975 edition of The Healdsburg Tribune. According to the same article, the idea for the tour was brought up by Larry Carson, who at the time

Coleen Lane shows off prune blossoms in the March 27, 1969 edition of The Healdsburg Tribune. was the publicity chairman for the Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce. The first Prune Blossom Tour was held in March of 1961. News of the tour was announced in the March 2, 1961 edition of the Tribune. “A Prune Blossom Tour, to acquaint Bay Area and Peninsula residents, as well as others, with the beauty of
Healdsburg’s Prune Blossom Season, has been set for March 18 and 19. The Prune Blossom Tour, sponsored by the Healdsburg Chamber of Commerce, will cover an area of approximately 25 miles,” the article states. The tour started at the chamber of commerce office at 217 Healdsburg Ave. and went around Fitch Mountain,
through Alexander Valley, Geyserville, Dry Creek and Asti. The 1975 Tribune article states that only around 300 people came to view the blossoms, but after a few years, the popularity of the event grew. In 1963, the Russian River Farm Bureau started serving a full luncheon at the Alexander Valley hall as a way to cap the event and raise funds. The lunch was prepared by volunteers and members of the Ladies Aid group and included ham, potato salad, a green salad, jell-O and desert, which often consisted of prune cake or prune cookies made by 4-H members. “It was a tremendous amount of work. We fed up to 2,000 people on some of our weekends. They came in busload after busload after busload and there were even a group of pilots that flew into the airport. It was a big affair,” said Alyce Cadd, one of the volunteers who helped prepare the luncheon. “Two, three dozen eggs and 10 pounds of potatoes always faced me. I was on the salad group. Everybody had their particular role to play — getting the salad dressing put together, ordering the different items needed and of course cleaning and set up.” Cadd, whose family dried prunes, said it was a lot of work.
“It was a lot of fun, we giggled and laughed in the kitchen in the back,” she said. “They (the lunch guests) were very friendly and they always had questions to ask. I’m a people person — I like people — so it was a special day for me.” The first luncheon in 1963 served 274 people, according to Tribune archives, and by the next year, 1,500 visitors from 19 states and seven foreign countries were making the tour. “They brought in buses from all over like from San Francisco and areas like that, they came to the Prune Blossom Tour. It was a huge fundraiser, it took the whole community to put this on,” Sheehy said. “My family’s involvement was my mom, Gertrude Young, was the one who always decorated the hall. She sort of single handedly would transform it every year with something different, prune blossoms hanging from the ceiling, umbrellas with prune blossoms coming out, things on the walls ect. She was very creative that way and every year was something different.” In 1966, the Prune Blossom Tour was rated as one of the top 10 travel events in the nation by the National Association of Travel Organizations, according to a Sonoma County Farm Bureau article by Katherine Rinehart and
Meredith Driesback. In fact, prunes were so popular that in the fall of 1966, the City of Healdsburg paid tribute to the prune industry by holding a prune pie baking and eating contest. For her winning pie, Rose Cattalini won an electric broiler and rotisserie. The Sept. 15, 1966 Tribune reported that Fitch Mountain Road resident Derl Henderson was the winner of the prune pie eating contest and for his efforts, he won a transistor radio. At the peak of the tour’s popularity, in 1971, the tour attracted 4,000 visitors, according to the farm bureau article. Cadd said of the spring-time blossoms, “It really was beautiful. The entire valley would be white.” The shift from prunes to grape started in the 1970s and in 1973 the Prune Blossom Tour was renamed the spring blossom tour. Sheehy said Cadd told of a story of when Sheehy’s mother put her hand in her pocket and pulled out a wad of money, saying it was part of her grape money. “People were just beginning to plant grapes,” Sheehy said. The Young family went on to establish the Robert Young Estate Winery. In 1963, the Young winery was the first to plant cabernet sauvignon
grapes in Alexander Valley. The winery was established in 1997 by Robert Young’s son Fred and his siblings JoAnn, Susan and Jim. “I would always tell people when they’d come for barrel tasting I would tell people ‘you know people came to this valley in the 1800s. They came for the geysers, that was the big draw, and then they came for the prune blossoms and now people are coming for wine tasting. It has always been a beautiful valley, always welcoming to visitors so we just transitioned from prunes to grapes,” Sheehy said. She said her family ranch has one prune tree left. “We transitioned. We were three generations of prunes. Our family has been here since the mid-1850s and we had prunes. When I was growing up, there were still prunes out here. My dad planted the first grapes on our ranch in 63’, just when I was still in high school. Now you can hardly see a prune tree out here. As we always say, there was more money in grapes than prunes.” In 1986, the Alexander Valley Farm Bureau took over hosting the spring blossom tour and the final blossom tour was held in 1995. Sheehy said of the prune blossoms, “It was so beautiful out here. It was just a sea of blossoms.”
“Before there were grapes there were prunes:” Looking back to when prunes ruled By Katherine MinkiewiczMartine Staff Writer katherine@soconews.org Earlier this month, I was at the Healdsburg Museum looking through old editions of The Healdsburg Tribune to familiarize myself with Healdsburg’s Prune Blossom Tour, the subject of my latest feature article, and I came across a selection of recipes — prune nut squares, prune apricot pot roast and prune honey bread. Since I was going to be writing about the history of the tour, I thought it would be fun to try to make one of the prune-related recipes. Since the pot roast and the prune nut squares didn’t sound too appealing to me, I decided to try my hand at baking the prune bread. Right off the bat I should say that I’m not a big prune or raisin fan, however, the other ingredients in the bread did sound appealing — sugar, walnuts, honey, vanilla extract — so I decided to roll up my sleeves and get to work. The first order of business was chopping a cup and a half worth of prunes and let me tell you, it wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. The prunes were sticking to the knife and my fingers and once in a while I came across a pit, but I eventually got them all finely chopped. I also didn’t have quite a cup and a half but I figured that the amount I had would do. Next, I had to boil a cup of water to add to the prune mixture. I’ve never had to do this when making a loaf bread, such as banana bread, so I’m curious to know if anyone has any idea what the benefit of adding boiling water is. As I combined the beaten
This was where it all went wrong. Perhaps I should’ve put it back in for only three minutes, or, I could’ve just listened to the recipe and taken it out at the hour mark. The bread smelled good so I thought it would taste good, but the consistency was off, it looked like a giant brick, and the taste was like, well, prunes. A lot of prunes. The bread definitely tasted healthy and I did like the walnuts, but I think I’ll stick with banana bread. In all honesty, it probably would’ve tasted better if I hadn’t overbaked it, but as my mom says, you can only learn from your mistakes.

A BRICK THAT TASTES LIKE PRUNES — Staff Writer Katherine Minkiewicz-Martine followed a 1970 orune bread recipe form the Tribune archives. The taste? “ ... the taste was like, well, prunes. A lot of prunes.” egg, the prune mixture, the cup of chopped walnuts, water, vanilla extract and baking soda, I had hopes that the bread would turn out good. After I mixed those ingredients I had to let the mixture sit covered for 20 minutes. While I waited, I sifted the flour and sugar and measured out the cup of honey. When the 20 minutes were up, I combined the prune mixture and the honey with the sugar and flour and got out my electric mixture, which I am so thankful for
because this was a thick batter and hand mixing it would’ve required a lot of muscle. I mixed the batter for about three to five minutes on the low setting and then on the medium setting as “low” wasn’t cutting it. It seemed that the recipe yielded a lot of batter and I wasn’t sure if it was going to all fit in my loaf pan, but nevertheless, I greased and floured my pan and prepared to fill it, which was also a more difficult task than expected. Normally, I can bake
without the help of others, but this batter was very viscous and it was pouring out into the pan at a snail’s pace and my arm was growing tired of holding the heavy bowl aloft, so, I recruited my husband to help me. He held the bowl for me while I scooped the rest of the batter into the pan. At this point I took a whiff of the batter and it didn’t smell all that appetizing. Regardless, I put it into the oven. As the loaf baked, it did start to smell quite good, like a warm and sweet raisin

bread. When my timer was up, I pulled the loaf out to check on it. It was a lovely golden brown color and it hadn’t quite risen all the way. I poked a toothpick through the middle to see if it was done, however, the toothpick didn’t come out clean so I put the bread back in for eight minutes.

F
ellow Healdsburgers, The Healdsburg Tribune is undergoing major changes — who knows what the future will Marie Butler hold? Thank you for all of the newsy items and tidbits you have shared with me since my “Idlewood 3 …” column began in 2004. The Healdsburg Museum hosted a free Traditional Native Food Festival on a recent Saturday afternoon. It was in conjunction with their ongoing exhibit of exquisite Pomo and Wappo basketry. Held in the garden adjacent to the museum, there were tents and tables with traditional food preparers demonstrating local foods and preparations. Guests were able to wander about, and learn about tools and uses, and sample the foods. At one table, salty, crunchy seaweed was deep fried. At the edge of the garden, salmon was set onto stakes and smoked over cedar logs. There was a display of lava rock mortar and pestles at Meyo Marrufo’s table. There, she explained the process of leaching the black oak acorns, and turning them into meal. Popcorn was dusted with manzanita berries which had been ground to a powder; it had a sweet, and bitter, umami taste. Peppernuts from bay trees were ground up and formed into balls, then rolled in berries, or cayenne. The flavor was similar to dark chocolate or coffee. The museum’s exhibit itself features baskets of all sizes, from tiny to large: goblets, bowls, a teacup and more, constructed from willow, beads, sedge, feathers and shells. The photos and stories posted alongside complete the scene. Downtown was awash in green in the early hours of St. Patrick’s Day. Rotarians were busy outside Costeaux obtaining green coiffures. Celtic music blared nearby. Parade participants were eager and dressed for the occasion, and various beverages were partaken for sustenance. Local dogs had also donned appropriately green hats, leashes and tutus. Pam Vana-Paxhia’s two pups, Lu and Murphy, were ready. Vehicles were decorated, too. The fire department added streamers to its truck. There were John Deere Gators aglow in green lights. Lorraine Ham was the parade’s Grand Marshall and “VIP” and was chauffeured in Peter O’Brien’s 1953 Pontiac convertible. Councilmember David Hagele sparkled in a green sequin jacket, and his daughter Charlotte looked glam in a silver one. The Crottys carried a large Irish flag. The Tubbs family comes every year from Santa Rosa, to celebrate Carey Tubbs’ St. Pat’s birthday. The parade began at the Sanderson Ford lot, led by bagpiper Hal Wilkes. It picked up more participants and steam as it wound its way toward the Plaza; once around, and then done. Mayor Jimenez gave a short speech, and a shout-out to city staff and resilient Healdsburgers. Revelers then dispersed to celebrate in their own festive ways. At noon that day, the Kiwanis co-sponsored a free Celtic concert in the Plaza. The kilt-wearing group, Tempest, gave a rousing performance. Attendees clapped and danced along. The Shiloh Step Irish Dancers provided fine entertainment. The Kiwanis had ring toss games, and distributed free popcorn. Truly, a good day in Healdsburg. It was a “corny” April Fool’s Day at the Healdsburg Senior Center, celebrating their second annual corn dog luncheon. Kiwanis members set up and cooked, joining the Friends of the Senior Center’s President, Pat Bean, Center staff, the Senior Citizens Advisory Commissioner, and guests. Kiwanian and volunteer firefighter Eric Smith bravely donned a hot dog costume to set the mood. Center Director Anna Grant said, “We see folks today who we don’t see any other time of the year.” Chips, cookies and lemonade rounded out the menu. You may recall from a few columns back, that local Jonny Juarez was a semi-finalist for the 2022 Biltwell People’s Champ “build-off” motorcycle competition. He made it to the finals, and his beautiful “Gypsy Rose” bike is painted and ready for the final vote in June. As both a parent and skateboard enthusiast, Jonny has also been active in the Carson Warner Memorial Skate Park. He’s been working with the city on much-needed upgrades there. The park is over 20 year old and needs some help, especially with summer coming up. A permanent bathroom, lighting, water station and facelift would benefit our kids. Huzzah! It is farmers’ market season again. April showers may necessitate bumbershoots, as you wander amidst the posies and produce.

ear friends, this is my last article for the print version of the Healdsburg Tribune, which we all love so much for so many years and will miss dearly. I started working with Rollie and Sarah in Gayle Okumura 2016, when I wrote my first article for their Discoveries Magazine. It was right around Sullivan this time, just before Mother's Day. I thank them both for their dedication and true love of journalism. Thank you too, for supporting the Healdsburg Tribune and SoCoNews. Gayle Okumura Sullivan, co-owner Dry Creek Peach Mother's Day Baking Basic My mother was a great cook. Nothing fancy, just a repertoire of nourishing and delicious home-style meals that always ended with dessert. As a kid, I’d sit at the counter and watch her, marveling that a few simple ingredients could turn into something so delicious. She was renowned for her pies. At Thanksgiving and Christmas, always pumpkin chiffon. In the summer, fresh fruit. And the base of every pie is, of course, the crust. This recipe hails from McCreary, a small town outside Winnipeg, where my parents started their married life, my dad a general practitioner and my mom a nurse. They loved it there and they became an integral part of the community where social gatherings always centered around food. This is one recipe from that time. Thanks Mom and Dad. Mom’s Pie Crust 5 cups flour / 3 tablespoon brown sugar /1/2 teaspoon salt / 1 teaspoon baking power / 1 pound lard, cut into pieces / 1 egg / 3/4 cup milk / 1 teaspoon vinegar In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients, and then with your hands, mix in the cut up lard, until it reaches a cornmeal consistency. In a small bowl, mix with a fork the egg, milk and vinegar. Thoroughly combine all ingredients. Separate into five portions. Your pastry is now ready for baking or freezing. To bake, roll out pastry and press evenly into a pie plate. Prick the sides and base with a fork. Bake at 425 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes. And now for the fresh fruit part. In the heart of summer, there is such great bounty here in Sonoma County, including peaches. We typically open our season around Memorial Day and close around Labor Day, so it is just around the corner. Eating a fresh, delicious, ripe peach is heaven. I am with Alice Waters and I agree there is nothing quite comparable. They define summer. And though nothing is comparable to a fresh peach, here is a fresh suggestion. I have made a lot of pies over the 22 years we’ve had the farm, and when peaches are at the peak, this is the favorite. When you have a really good peach, you don’t want to bake out any of the flavor. Fresh Peach Pie Baked 9-inch single-crust pie 1 package 8 oz. cream cheese set out to room temperature 3/4 cup sugar (you will use ½ cup, then ¼ cup later) ¼ cup fresh orange juice 2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (save some for peaches) 1 tablespoon cornstarch 6 cups firm ripe peaches – pitted, peeled and sliced Combine cream cheese and ½ cup sugar in a small bowl. Spread this mixture over the base of your baked and cooled pie crust. Set aside. Place remaining sugar (1/4 cup), orange juice, lemon juice, cornstarch and 1/2 cup peaches in a blender and blend together until smooth. On a cutting board, toss sliced peaches with lemon juice and set aside. Pour blended ingredients into saucepan, medium heat, until slightly thickened. Add sliced peaches to coat and let mixture cool. With a slotted spoon, scoop up peaches, and place in prepared pie crust. Cool in fridge for a few hours before serving.

F., will be represented by a large delegation. In preparation for the meeting, a wireless set has been installed in the hall where the meeting will be held, and after lodge has been closed and the Odd Fellows and their ladies gather for a few social hours, the set will be connected up with a Magnavox and the jazz music transmitted from the Fairmont will sound through the hall while the revelers dance. 75 years ago – April 18, 1947 Frisch Building Permit Denied By Government Finnly W. Frisch this week was denied permission by the federal government to remodel his building at the corner of Center and Powell on the ground that because of the veterans’ housing shortage all materials should be withheld from commercial building. This came as a distinct shock to local observers in view of the widespread commercial building now underway in virtually every city in California. It was declared incredible that the job of remodeling the onetime bank building was prohibited. A number of local organizations and institutions immediately declared they would protest the action both on the coast and in Washington. It was believed locally that the decision would be quickly reversed and the work would begin soon. 50 years ago – April 20, 1972 Work on park underway lt hasn't received a check from the Federal government yet but that isn’t stopping the progress at the city’s new park at the end of Prentice Drive. With a bumper gift from the Kiwanis Club of $2,800, the park will have a number of swings and things for youngsters to play on and city crews have already begun work on an irrigation system and sidewalks at the site. The Kiwanis pledge will give the two-acre site a number of swings, slides, and other playground toys including something called the Kangaroo Hop, the Bob-ARound, and an assortment of brightly painted animals mounted on springs for kids to ride, 10 in all. The park, which has already been planted with a number of donated trees, is located at the foot of the proposed Oakleaf planned development by Sierra Development Co. It intends to incorporate the park in its overall plan so children can get to it by a path, rather than having them use streets.

AVFest invites moviegoers back for eighth year By Zoë Strickland Managing Editor In its eighth year, AVFest, formerly the Alexander Valley Film Festival, is headed back to big screens and event venues across the county. AVFest will be a 10day celebration, with screenings from Santa Rosa to Cloverdale. The festival begins April 29 and wraps up May 8. “Last year we had a full 10 days, although it was 90 percent virtual. We had a full 10 days with a couple of pickup dinner events or we had a drive-in or two. This year, all 10 days will be in person. That means that the expansion and growth we experienced online, we’re parlaying into an in-person experience,” said AVFilm Executive Director Kathryn Hecht. This year, the film festival will also have more programmed film blocks. “To have those programmers join us for the festival and bring their perspective and lens is invaluable,” Hecht said. A block focused on films centering on Latine/x creators and themes, titled “Americanos from Here and There,” was curated by Cine+Mas founder Lucho Ramirez. “Our shared history with Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and the rest of the Americas has left its indelible mark, and these exchanges continue to shape our culture,” reads a portion of a description of Ramirez’ curated film block. Americanos from Here and There has films that span sci-

Bianka Bell’s curated film block “Listen to their Stories: A Lens into the Black Human Experience” centers on Black creators and themes. “We tackle the experiences and perspectives of a wide spectrum of folks within this community: Black women, queer Black people, Black professionals, Black mothers, daughters and brothers; those who have endured the consequences of an unfair justice system, and those just trying to make it to the next day. Though many of these narratives exist in a heavy light, the lessons they will teach are invaluable. Lean in with your ears, and listen with an open heart,” Bell wrote in a description of her film block on the AVFest website. A block called “The most controversial act I’ve
committed is being true to myself: LGBTQIA Perspectives” focuses on LGBTQ+ creators and themes and was curated by Chelsea Kurnick, who also serves as chair of Santa Rosa-based Positive Images. “There’s a lot to learn about here – from the untold stories of punk dyke culture in 1980s London to the present-day challenges young Two Spirit people face. As a horror fan, I am positively giddy about the suspenseful shorts program we’ve got in store for you,” reads a description from Kurnick about the block on the AVFest website. “It’s free of jump scares and gore but filled with surprises that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Although these films will interest all AVFest attendees, as a queer programmer, I’m

programming with a queer and trans audience in mind. This block is for us.” This year’s festival, especially coming off of going nearly all virtual last year, is geared toward being a celebration of “healing, humanity and art.” “It loops back around to connecting through film. I think an important distinction of art as a healing tool or modality is that, if we know studies show isolation leads to feelings of depression and loneliness, then gathering should offer the antidote to that. But gathering with a purpose and gathering around a shared interest of movies and film and media then creates an even broader sense of belonging,” Hecht said. Between regular film showings, a host of special events will help connect participating festival-goers. One event, billed as AVFest Live!, will include a live showing of “Attack, Decay, Release,” a film shown across
multiple screens that marries animation, old film clips from the Prelinger Archives and film shot by writer-director H.P. Mendoza. “Attack, Decay, Release” chronicles the journey of humankind trying to find a new home after Earth is ravaged by a pandemic. It tracks the advent of agriculture to the Industrial Revolution to the fight for human rights around the world, while also using music from an album Mendoza wrote for his husband in 2012. A showing of the film at The Lost Church in Santa Rosa will open with a live musical set by Mendoza. “It was designed to be seen with people and their friends,” Mendoza said, noting that in the midst of the film, there are moments where “dance” is written across the screens. Initially created as part of a project from The Svane Family Foundation that would allow it to be shown as part of an exhibit, Mendoza wanted “Attack, Decay, Release” to feel like a party. Though the film was created during the pandemic, “Attack, Decay, Release” follows a pandemic storyline that Mendoza created 10 years ago with the album. The sci-fi element of the album took on new meaning with the advent of the pandemic, and Mendoza used it as an outlet to explore his own feelings. “The interesting thing about what I’m doing is that … these are things that I’m talking about with my friends all of the time. In the wake of the pandemic, I’m working out of what all of us are going through,” Mendoza said.

Getting diversity to the table For the AVFilm, fostering a deeper sense of belonging goes beyond making a concentrated effort to include more films by Latine/x, Black and LGBTQ+ creators. It also means looking at how to best reach community members where they are — like introducing festival programming in Windsor and Santa Rosa. Or how the best way to approach a more equitable film screening process — by compensating the screening team. “The way we deployed the screening team this year is a reflection of this internal work — prioritizing diversity, equity and belonging,” Hecht said, noting that Kurnick, the festival’s film programmer and development programmer worked to help conceptualize a way to compensate the screening team in a way that would “allow for a broader and more diverse group of screeners to participate. She’s also managing the screening team for the first time to ensure that we’re pairing, making sure that diverse creators and their artwork are being viewed by diverse members of the community.” “Most people who have time to volunteer we have found are white, over 55 and retired. That’s why we took this path, why we went in the direction to pay people so, if they have to offset child care or take time off of work, then their time is compensated. By prioritizing that, that’s how we get diversity to the table,” Hecht said. To find out more about this year’s film festival, go to avfilmpresents.org.

Volunteers clean up over 800 pounds of trash in Dry Creek Valley By Katherine MinkiewiczMartine Staff Writer katherine@soconews.org On April 4, volunteers picked up 836 pounds of trash, including eight tires, during the annual Dry Creek Valley trash pickup, which was organized in part by the Winegrowers of Dry Creek Valley, the Dry Creek Valley Association and the Russian Riverkeeper Clean Team. Dry Creek Vineyard hosted the event while Russian Riverkeeper Clean Team
provided the necessary equipment and Recology Sonoma Martin provided dumpsters. Forty-three volunteers came together during the event to pick up trash from the main roads in Dry Creek Valley. “Sustainability isn’t a buzzword for us,” Dry Creek Vineyard President Kim Stare Wallace said in a written statement. “It’s our way of life. Our goal is to leave the land in a better place for the next generation. We are committed to hosting the
annual Dry Creek Valley trash pick-up and doing our part for the valley that we call home.”

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 833-561-0243 for information regarding the trustee's sale or visit this Internet Web site WWW.SALES.BDFGROUP.COM for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case 00000004742940. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an "eligible tenant buyer," you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an "eligible bidder", you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 833-561-0243, or visit this internet website WWW.SALES.BDFGROUP.COM using the file number assigned to this case 00000004742940 to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale. If you think you may qualify as an "eligible tenant buyer" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

This Week in H’burg...
From the Library
Spring at the Library
This Week in H’burg is a weekly column featuring photos and fun facts from local photographer Pierre Ratté. Each week we’ll feature a new photo from Ratté along with a fact about the subject matter of the photo.
S
pring greetings from your Healdsburg Regional Library staff members. This year, we continue to focus on helping reconnect our community through nature, literacy and reading. We have begun a new series of family storytimes in the park. Miss Charity will meet families in Giorgi Park with the new BiblioBike for reading stories, music, crafts and more. These storytimes are designed to work for families with young children of different ages, so it will be a fun time for babies and toddlers up to preschool age. Storytimes are schedule for Friday mornings at 11 a.m., from April 15 through May 13. The first spring outdoor storytime was moved into our meeting room inside the library because of rain, which is something to keep in mind if you are planning to attend. For future weeks, if we are lucky enough to receive more rain and the grass is wet, you can find the storytime at the library instead of at Giorgi Park. We were overjoyed to welcome families into the library for our first indoor storytime in the pandemic era and are looking forward to more. In the meantime, though, everyone seems to be enjoying the storytimes in the park, and we can’t wait to see you there. Another well-loved activity in the library that has returned is our Read to a Dog program on Saturday mornings at 11 a.m. Recently we have had the opportunity to welcome young readers for this chance to practice reading to a nonjudgmental, appreciative audience. We are excited to announce that our schedule will return to weekly, any upcoming Saturday, please come by the library at 11 a.m. for this low-key program that can be so helpful for children as they explore the wonders of reading. We are already spending a lot of time working to prepare for summer reading programs and we can’t wait to roll out our plans. Stay tuned for information about events and programming for all ages coming in the next month or so. You can find out about upcoming programs on our website, through social media, or through our Sonoma County Library newsletter. Of course, the best way to find out about the library is by coming to the library in person. We really look forward to seeing you, whether it is to help with your new e-reader, to tell you about upcoming events, or simply to help you find a good read. On behalf of everyone at the Healdsburg Regional Library, we wish you a happy late spring. Happy reading.
… A rose. I wish I were a rose. I could peek out a rustic fence, show my colors, red and green. I could sit in one place and take in the beauty around me knowing “a rose is a rose, is a rose.” Healdsburg is blessed with an amazing array of plants. In the downtown plaza, there are redwood trees alongside palm trees, alongside majestic spreading oaks. Gardens grow cacti next to scotch broom, surrounded by irises, under Meyer lemons, rained on by Metasequoia glyptostroboides. Walking around H’burg is a wonder. I see all sorts of marvelous things wandering this city. Old and rustic, new and white. I see cottages of modest means, new houses of tech and monied sanguine. Many lament Healdsburg’s changes. I see those, too. Nonetheless, when I walk the streets, I have a feeling that Healdsburg’s beauty is here to stay. Maybe not the same as long-term residents remember, but its bones, its legacy of small lots, circumscribed city limits, agricultural surrounds, its central plaza, its bespoke commercial enterprises without big box competition or by-pass highways with death star malls, ensure Healdsburg will evolve in a more or less natural manner. As spring blossoms with trees and flowers, I am happy and privileged to walk Healdsburg’s streets and celebrate its beauty. Easter week is a time of rebirth, and I see it everywhere when I look closely. Fun facts: Gertrude Stein wrote the line: “a rose is a rose is a rose” in 1913; it was in a poem entitled “Sacred Emily;” its meaning is a statement of identity at a time when the word “rose” was being used metaphorically in Romance literature; roses are in the Rosaceae family; there are 300 species and thousands of cultivated varieties; the fruit is called a “hip” from which tea is made; a beautiful collection can be seen at Healdsburg’s Russian River Rose Company.

MENTAL HEALTH: Continued from Page 1 against something that is going to overwhelm your resources, that’s a very hard emotion to have on top of chronic fatigue and stress from chronic disasters. It’s certainly not the case, but some feel they’re letting people down.” The problem of recurrent wildfires doesn’t have an easy solution. Foreman said California needs to increase its prescribed burns, on which it’s behind by 100 years. Also, increased heat and wind events, tied to climate change, can’t simply be undone. Fires will likely continue to overwhelm resources and sometimes leave firefighters feeling powerless, especially when driven by fast winds. Foreman said, “When we have a wind-driven fire and that wind is 20 miles per hour or more, we can’t stand and fight it. Those fires get away from us and we end up chasing them.” The effects of continuously facing this intractable situation wear on the mental health of even the toughest first responders. While Foreman spoke primarily about firefighters, she said law enforcement and emergency medical professionals can also experience the impact of chronic fatigue as it affects their home lives, work lives, health, sleep and general wellbeing. The disaster, she said, adds to what is already a stressful industry by nature. “Stressors on the job are nothing new to us,” Foreman said. “We’re there on everybody’s worst day — we’re used to being there on the worst days of people’s lives. There’s a chronic mental fatigue from seeing horrible things on a regular basis. Taking the fires out of the equation, there still exists a massive mental health issue based on our day-to-day work.” The impacts of that stress, wildfires aside, are demonstrated by increased suicide rates nationally throughout first responder industries, overtaking cardiac arrest and respiratory problems as causes of death for first responders. Foreman also said her district has seen an increase in early retirements and increased cases of stress leave. Foreman said mental health factors into a question of whether staff are “fit for duty” at the start of their shifts. Just like if they had a physical injury, mental health is something that must be dealt with so staff can carry
out their function — and also live happy lives. SCFD has been adopting a peer-support model, growing in popularity around the state. First responders can face difficulty receiving mental health treatment from clinicians who lack the same personal experience dealing with trauma on a daily basis. Now, in addition to the traditional clinical counseling offered to SCFD employees through the union’s employee assistance program (EAP), employees can choose to receive peer support 24/7. Peer support providers are local firefighters who have undergone training and are able to help their peers talk about whatever problems they face. Foreman said peer support is replacing critical incident stress debriefings — ad hoc support groups after particularly difficult calls, such as one in which a child was injured or killed. Peer support helps first responders deal with the stress of the job — stress she said they have to compartmentalize to a certain degree. If those compartments don’t get cleaned out, Foreman said, mental health problems can arise. Administrators in the fire services have been becoming aware of the needs of a holistic approach to mental health among firefighters and first responders. Foreman said training and retreats can teach firefighters resiliency skills, which include talking to others, getting out in nature, exercising, maintaining a healthy diet — and more. Teaching first responders resiliency skills to help them deal with the stressors of the job is something Sue Farren at First Responder Resiliency, Inc. (FRR), out of Santa Rosa, has been doing in the region and across the state. Farren retired from her career as a paramedic in 2016 when she was diagnosed with kidney cancer. While meeting with a surgeon, Farren learned that first responders face higher rates of organ cancer and other diseases tied to long-term stress. “I started finding things like our life expectancies were 15 to 20 years less than civilians,” Farren said. “That chronic state of fight-or-flight is what kills us. Stress is the No. 1 contributing factor to disease.” Regarding recurrent disasters, Farren said, “Disasters turn up the heat. It’s been hard on all of us.” Throw in a now-two-year global pandemic, and Farren said, “I think the stress is more severe than it’s ever been before. I think the work for first responders has
always been very, very hard, but because we’ve had so many disasters and now the pandemic, the pressure has been much higher.” According to Farren, first responders can experience anxiety, depression, substance abuse, problems in their relationships and loss of joy. Farren and her organization’s mission is to confront the lack of preventive or proactive treatment for chronic stress. As it is now, Farren said the medical system waits for individuals to become sick or injured and then treats them after the fact. That’s something she’s hoping to change by teaching first responders how to stay calm and healthy, drawing on neuroscience and psychology. “We train people on what’s happening in the brain, and how to stay balanced,” Farren said. “We use different forms of training, from tactical yoga and breathwork to transforming their psychology through meditation and therapy — all types of different modalities to keep their nervous systems calm.” Since its inception, FRR has trained close to 6,000 first responders, and has signed a three-year contract to provide training to CalFire employees. Training takes place like any other training, usually in eight-hour paid sessions, or in three-day conferences. Farren has provided training for Sonoma County Fire District personnel, and Foreman called her program “amazing.” Farren’s program has shown promise, and empirical data on outcomes is currently being studied scientifically by Loma Linda University. In addition to providing training as the only firstresponder-led program of its kind. FRR has is raising funds to build a permanent center on an 18-acre parcel, recently purchased in Cotati. Donations for the organization’s $2 million dollar fundraising goal can be made through GoFundMe by visiting www.resiliency1st.org. Both Foreman and Farren emphasized that stigma against talking about and getting help for mental health problems in the field — something Foreman attributed partially to the “machismo” attached to the job — is a major obstacle. However, things are changing, with conversations about and pursuit of treatment for mental health issues becoming normalized. One of the problems attached to stigma — which can cause barriers in the worker’s compensation
process — is the use of the term post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Foreman said the term “disorder” implies that something has gone wrong with an individual, when the effects of chronic stress are to be expected with a job that confronts stressful situations on a daily basis. She said there is a movement to
abandon the term in favor of post-traumatic stress injury (PTSI), to remove the connotations of the word “disorder.” While the impacts of the job’s stressors are challenging, they may also present an unexpected silver lining: they help first responders empathize with patients experiencing mental
health crises. “Whether you struggle with mental health for reasons related to childhood or depression or whatever, you’re no different from us with our own mental health issues — we just have different triggers and stressors. When we see people in the field struggling with mental health, we understand.”
