Yesterday went to a meeting of "the Valley Community Land Collective". This baby is in it's inception. There was a lot of thoughtful dialogue, and it was exciting to be around 7 or 8 people with similar interests. A representative from a Land Trust in Franklin County was there, and she fielded a lot of questions about the logistics of how a land trust actually operates. The conclusion of the meeting was that we need to continue getting to know each other and what our goals are, finding the intersections there. I have a lot of appreciation for Matt, who's been working hard to get people together around this, and for Chris M, who sent me the info about the meeting in the first place. The dream gets closer.
P.S. This meeting was a block and a half from my house, and pretty much all the people live in Northampton...
I also ran into Sara P. earlier in the day. I keep thinking about her but not calling her, so this was a gift. I have so much admiration for her, and wish to learn from her.
