Just outside of San Francisco, we caught up with Sexecologists Annie Sprinkle and her partner Dr. Beth Stephens for an Ecosexual Walking Tour of the Marin Headlands. The two used their E.A.R.T.H. Lab to tow the Pollination Pod over the Golden Gate bridge to the Headlands Center for the Arts, a former military barracks which has been rehabilitated by artists.

There, Annie and Beth along with fellow Ecosexual Activists Joy and Maria, led a tour of the surrounding area and demonstrated Twenty-Five Ways to Make Love to the Earth.

Their presentation included a ritual celebrating our intimate relationship with water and some lessons on how to conserve it, raising awareness about the current drought conditions in California. The dusty brown landscape that we have encountered during our drive through Northern California is evidence of this very real crisis. The tour concluded with a kind of symbolic Ecosexual orgy in the woods which involved the consumption of some very juicy fruits.
