The idea of a Community of Practice came into my field while working with Dan Palmer, a former mentor. This is a space of colleagues, of open source sharing, of brainstorming, and humility. Occasionally, in this digital day and age, we get the chance to form this community in person, but often it comes alive online. Milan Marquis, a colleague working in Spain, is facilitating one of these communities through long form interviews with different Syntropic Farming practioners around the world. I was fortunate to join him for a deep dive exploring my experience in agroforestry, permaculture design, and applying Syntropic Farming to the land projects we support.

Community of Practice in Person
Despite the power of the internet allowing us to join in diverse and distant conversations, oftentimes the best form of practice, and certainly the best form of community is in person. So consider joining us for our next in-person workshop!
