Thank you all for a great retreat! We want to acknowledge all of you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come down to Asheville and engage with us and one another. We've received some great feedback from many of you who appreciated the opportunity to learn about each other's efforts and interests, and found new collaborators, mentors, and fellow travelers through participating in this retreat. In addition to whatever you personally took away from this gathering, each of you has taken on the awesome and momentous task of building a movement and for that you deserve to be recognized.
We'll be in touch shortly with our synthesis of the retreat, including main themes, areas of deepest commitment, etc. We will also be circulating a retreat survey designed to collect your feedback on the programming and your experience, and will share our video once it's been fully polished.
Thanks to Allison Basile we've figured out how you can communicate with this group via email, so that should make sharing easier. We hope you'll continue to use this google group to share ideas, projects, as well as needs and offers with one another. We also hope you will share with Alexa and I ways in which we can help each of you, and the coalition overall. The group email address is:
diyec...@googlegroups.com and the web address for the group is:
https://groups.google.com/d/forum/diyeconomy
Finally we'd like to, again, acknowledge the efforts of the Mycelium team - especially Matthew and Ashley - as well as Caroline of Rebuild the Dream. Without you all we could not have brought together such a diverse and exceptional group of people and so successfully embarked on such an ambitious voyage. Huzzah!
Onward,
Josh and Alexa
