2022

Foundational to the work we did was us asking that very same question. Challenging ourselves to think about how to dispel the idea that climate change is something separate from us. When in fact, we are embedded in the same ecological system. With this grounding set, we went about developing LWCC by creating nourishing relationships. Through these relationships with place, people, food, and personal well-being, we learned what the LWCC event series should be about: creating non-commodified empowered communities of well-being that can face challenges. We put the process of creating well-being before the process of producing events, and through a horizontal relational structure, we were able to generate an event series that communicated our values and learning, involving a broad, intergenerational cross-section of the local community. Like anything, these events were temporary, but their legacy lives on in the community and the constant revisiting of this hopeful question: what might be possible when we create together with the focus being on well-being?
