About Our Ecology
How We Operate
We have set ourselves up to be strategic in a way that defies the structures we live in and to build sustainability. We seek to build relationships and networks with organizations that live in alignment with our values. These organizations or projects are invited to become part of our ecology through various ways such as income sharing or memorandums of understanding that means we support each other while remaining separate organizations with separate books and separate management.
This model give us opportunities to grow networks and comunities that are more resilient. We do so by building decentralized networks of communities.
Some examples of communities we have invited include Houngan Mache Chache's community, Mind Spirit Guide Holly Neuman's Nature's Guide to Self, and practitioner Ryann Galvez.
