Planting Seeds

Hello! While we've been quiet, we've been planting seeds that we hope to grow into a large-scale project with a permanent home.
What's happened:
We've established our organization and completed all our paperwork. We're officially a 501(c)3 non-profit!
We've gathered a small but incredible board of directors.
We've organized our finances-- gotten a bank account and a way for people to donate to this mission.
We've created an apprenticeship program and hired our first apprentice, Maria Stull Escobar!
We've forged partnerships with existing organizations to help us navigate the administrative side of things and build this world we want to live in.
What's Next:
Maria will start her apprenticeship June of 2025. She'll be in Albuquerque, under the tutelage of Stu Soboleski. After a stint out West, she'll head back to Central Virginia to oversee programming.
We're gathering funds and leads to find ourselves a home. Our goal is to find 5+ acres in Central Virginia, where we can build our residential programs and community center. We welcome your ideas and input!
Keep on dreaming, friends. Imagination is powerful.
