@gracie88888 @sidewayskoyote @RizomaSchool 2/ Oh, and back in 2007, Lane County, OR, permaculturists and native ecology geeks, in an effort to identify and reconcile the substrative tensions underpinning such larger cultural worldviews, gathered the only place it can functionally occur - that is, grounded in the local.

@nils_gilman 1/ And I want to point at this description of the 2007 Lost Valley Native Plants and Permaculture Conference, the first occasion we believe, in the US at least, that ‘pro-natives’ and ‘pro-exotics’ camps came together to understand one another. Necessarily, a local conversation.

Quoted by@nils_gilman 3/ Ultimately, everything is 'eco', politics included. 'World peace' occurs only *through* the human *and* more-than-human synthesis of a coherent local embrace. And how does the reconciliatory power and promise of subsidiarity port-scale as a coherent eco-cultural foundation?Quoted by@ProjectOrchard Wonderful to hear Jo speaking to reconciliation at that fundamental, existential level - peace on, with and through the Earth. Do you know @Tao_Orion's work? A salient natives-exotics integrative voice, Stateside. Both of us were blessed to run with gentle Toby when he was local.
