Action Learning Guild meetings
I met with my guild buddy, Jeff Higley on several occasions following the Gaia RDI end of year presentations and the content workshop (Bioneers). We had a conference call with Amelia Parisian and Bryce McMath. We intended to keep having conference calls but it didn't work out for everybody. Jeff and i continued to call each other to make sure we were on task. We discussed our farm projeccts, the similarities of our mountain sites and the projects we were working on in Gaia for the coming year.
