These gatherings are designed for people of different ages, backgrounds, cultures, and languages to spend time together, build relationships, share knowledge, and connect with the places we call home. Some gatherings might take us outdoors in our neighborhoods to walk, notice birds, or care for a local place. Others might take us into the backcountry to learn about stewardship practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">We believe learning across generations and cultures is powerful.
