|
| also called the Tree Flag, the Evergreen Flag, the Doug Fir Flag or just Doug |

We are currently connecting with flag makers to mass produce
the Cascadian flag or Doug. If you wish to obtain a "all weather" durable Cascadian Flag right now then contact Collin
at savepac17@yahoo.com put in the subject of your e-mail "Cascadian Flag" or simply
"The Doug".
We are also currently making contact to produce a Doug out
of hemp fabric or other natural fabrics with natural dyes or the possiblity of a Cascadian flag made of recycled materials.
Of course to continue our goal of bioregional sustainablity we ideally wish to have the labor and materials used to be from
the bioregion of Cascadia.

The following are from posts in various forums about our efforts to produce a bioregional
Cascadian flag:

Who says we ain't movin'... we are movin'! Check
it out! WE HAVE A FLAG!
Ok, cool, I had to get that off my chest. Anyway, if any of you would like a flag too let
me know. Remember all, the more of you who say, "YES I WANT A FLAG TOO" means we can get a bulk rate, which will make future
productions of "THE DOUG" cheaper. A and I found a flag maker in Salem, OR who is waiting for us to make an order.

Our fellow Cascadian Collin during the winter holidays had a "Doug"
or Cascadian flag made. Those are pictures of the Doug I posted in the photo section. If you are interested then contact the
Texan company for a copy.
For those wanting a Cascadian local flag company there is smALL FLAGs in Oregon www.smallflags.com/BASE/About%20us.htmFor those wanted a more organic material made either contact
small flags and inquire if it is possible for them or the BeeHive Collective ( www.beehivecollective.org/ ) and see if they can help with materials. I would also suggest starting
several local flag making workshops (maybe Tryon Life Farm would be willing or one of the FreeSkools).

Subject: [Cascadian_Bioregionalism] DOUG FLAG-- IF YOU WANT ONE READ
IMMEDIATELY
I just purchased a Doug Flag from a producer in Texas. It wasn't cheap ($120), but they have the pattern
and the exact colors available. So, if you guys have some extra cash to throw around and want a high-quality Doug Flag this
is probably the best opportunity you'll get for some time. Regular price of a 3x5 Flag, like the Doug Flag, goes for an average
$190-$250. Flags-now.com is going through a bulk order, so everything is cheaper, and you'll get your flag by mail in 1-2
weeks.
If you want one call ASAP 1-877-752-5286 and ask for Brandi. They wanted to have all orders in by 12pm, but
maybe they can squeeze in some new orders-- It's still 11:00am in Texas as we speak...
Sincerely, Collin S. Ferguson
PS: Below is the quote I received from flags-now.com
Mr. Ferguson,
You are in luck today! I wanted
to contact you ASAP to let you know that we are in print and can do your flag at a discount due to a bulk print we
are running today.
We have your colors in and what would normally cost you $190.00 from our production line, but
will be yours $120.00. The best part is that we can ship it out today because we can run it with our grouping.
The
flag is printed on a very durable polyester that lasts as long as nylon. It is what you see professional businesses flags
on. It is a single reverse flag which means the mirror image on the back finished is like the front.
I do
need to have an answer by 12:00 to process you in the line. You may contact me@ the office 877-752-5286 or via email @
customsales@flags-now.com.
Thank you so much for your inquiry and we look forward to doing business with you.
Sincerely,
Brandi Cleveland Acct. Manager flags-now.com

This flag was designed several decades ago. The flag is also called the Tree Flag, the Evergreen Flag, the Doug Fir Flag
or just Doug for short. The tri-colors of blue, white and green has been a continuous series of colors applied to the region
known as Cascadia, the Oregon Territory, Ecotopia, Chinook Ilahee, Pacifica, the Pacific NorthWest, the NorthEast Pacific
and all the other names this region comes to be called. The blue represents the unpolluted sky, the Pacific Ocean and the
rivers and lakes that flow in Cascadia. The white represents the clouds and snow. The green represents the forests and fields.
The conifer tree found in a variety of species throughout the bioregion stands in defiance of storm, fire and Man. The conifer
tree as the Douglas Fir, the Redwood, the Cedar, the Spruce, the Pine and all other Evergreens can be found in many of the
various political and social organizations throughout the bioregion.

| Earlier version of the Tree Flag |
The "tree flag" has undergone some evolution as it has reached its current incarnation. The earliest version was
posted at first in the winter 0f 1996-1997. It was inspired as its designer was homesick for Cascadia and was looking out
at another beautiful landscape and thought of a fir tree with a Cascadian landscape as backdrop with green hills often clad
in white-grey clouds and a patch of blue momentarily cleared above.
