This is really happening… Quoted feed from @RootingExplorer Had an inspiring conversation yesterday with @pennyheiple and Anna Purpera about bioregional Design Labs. Feeling how potent and orienting it is to design around actual landscape and community opportunities and challenges. How fresh. How embodied. How real.

There is wisdom in Ayelet’s observation here… Quoted feed from @ayeletb While some are fighting, pioneers are creating healthy lives and systems. To break free, we create and return to natural rhythms and harmony. No longer dividing. There are much healthier options when we focus on what’s actually possible

We are in a beautiful process here in Barichara to disperse @gitcoin funds into several regenerative efforts. At the same time bringing together governance, cooperation, and integration at the community scale. Creating a living prototype of bioregional investment platforms.

We are organizing our first “bioregional updates” session for members of the design school — where teams on the ground in different bioregions share what they are learning with each other. Feeling the importance of these exchanges for the future of landscape-level efforts.

Joe Brewer retweeted: Just arrived somewhere with a vibrant local culture and a real sense that bioregionalism can happen here. I’ve been reflecting on the many reasons why that is and something simple popped up. The use of cars here is minimal. Most people walk. Most people talk.
