Welcome to the Up from the UnderStory project blog! Make yourself at home. Click on posts. Share your comments.
What is an understory? The understory is the part of the forest that grows under the tree canopy. It's a shady area made up of a mixture of plants which usually need more light to leaf out and grow.
And that's what our project is about. Shining a light on how a diverse group of rural residents in the forested Sierra foothills of California are creating new paths toward community revitalization.
This blog is about community, collaboration, and change. It's a space to bring together a network of people who are interested in the community renewal efforts of the Blue Mountain towns of West Point, Wilseyville, Glencoe, and Railroad Flat in
A group of Blue Mountain area youth are using cameras and computers to share their perspectives and showcase local change efforts. We invite you to view their work, give feedback, and share your own stories of community change.

Ayriel i really like the pictures you took on the theme of distance. your photos really give a sense of perspective (moving from the foreground out into the distance) because of the angle or placement of your camera. wonderful work.
hey these are some nice pictures. i like the distance parts and how they are showing how things look long and far away. sweet action sista.
These are beautiful pictures. I think that they demonstrate how nature and society work together. In each picture there is something "natural" or "wild"-greenery, and a man made artifact. I tend too often to forget that I don't have to go to the Sierras to find beauty with nature, it can literally be at our doorstep.
