We recently completed our second program, held Sept. 11 – 13 at Steve Roache’s pottery studio at the Beall Greenhouses (thanks to Beall owners Nancy Foster and Scarlett Moss, and to Steve). Institute for Social Ecology (ISE) co-founder Dan Chodorkoff, long-time core faculty Grace Gershuny, and current ISE Director Brian Tokar all flew to Vashon from Vermont to offer talks and workshops; and long-time ISE associate and former Teaching Assistant for Murray Bookchin, Lloyd Strecker, drove up from Monte Rio, California. We have heard quite a few comments about how inspired participants were by the workshops, which ranged from practical hands-on mycoremediation techniques to broad discussions of the reconstructive vision of social ecology in the context of the “Triple Crisis.” The presentations were at a very high level, and there was a great deal of mutual respect and cross-fertilization between the ISE folks and our SEEDS organizing group. Some of us at SEEDS are preparing to attend the annual ISE-sponsored social ecology colloquium series this summer in Vermont, in order to strengthen our bi-coastal bond.  |
