"For me, the marvelous thing about what I see happening here is that, what we have, as far as I’m concerned, is we have a community already. We’re just trying to figure out how to actually find a place for that community to live. And that has happened, in my mind, over the last 12 months, as we’ve been going through all these other things.

"We’ve had other crises in the past. And I think our response to this one is very telling, because we’re behaving as though the given is the community. We’ve got the community, and the variable is how do we figure out how to build the place for the community to live. And that just lightens up my heart – there’s this group of people who wants to live together so badly that we’re going through this stuff to figure out how to make it happen." ~ Russ

We Can...

My dream for TREE is that we can be seen as a haven for people that care about their carbon footprint. We can save the 9 spotted ladybug and other creatures that are endangered. We can create a community that no one is left behind in. We can grow a garden TOGETHER. We can make a meal TOGETHER. We can change the world.  We can... ~Aurora (9yo)
