Free - Potluck Meal

During our first Summit in July 2020 we discussed 3 important topics that are all interconnected and create a resilient community in the Sierra Foothills. We focused on Forest Restoration & Fire Prevention, Biodynamic Farming Practices, and Creating a Cooperative in the Foothills to support each other.

This meeting we will gather specifically to create a working cooperative model for the community to bring down our collective costs while providing goods and services to one another as efficiently and conveniently as possible.

We will begin by going over a rough draft framework of a working cooperative that Keith James, Eric Stalberg, and Hillary Solsbery have written that can be implemented in our community regardless of the product or service you are buying or selling.

We can work in groups to discuss how the framework keeps us accountable, protected, supported, and connected. At 5:30pm we will enjoy a potluck meal and talk casually with each other before cleaning up and leaving.
