Your expanded sense of what makes a community is promising in the town my wife and I moved to a year ago in south-central Tennessee. It's very community oriented, but the view of who's in the community isn't nearly as expansive as that of indigenous peoples of whom I'm aware.

This account of your mind wandering about your local flora and fauna while showering is both beautiful and compelling. If rewilding starts with relationships, we have all we need to start outside our front doors.

Thank you for all that you do. I’m vibing on how hopeful this is, and it’s hope grounded in thoughtful, earth-aligned action. This insight really resonates: “what started out as a land regeneration project, slowly revealed itself to be about relationships.” Anything we can do to repair and celebrate our interdependence is worth the effort.
