Welcome Autumn | September 2017 Newsletter

Gratitude Community Picnic
Join us Sunday, October 15 from 11 am to 2 pm for a family-friendly potluck at the Whidbey Institute in partnership with Organic Farm School and Aldermarsh. We’ll celebrate the season, share delicious, abundant food, congratulate the graduating Organic Farm School students, and honor friend and mentor Nancy Nordhoff for her lifelong commitment to community.

We ask that you bring a potluck dish to share, with ingredients labeled, as well as your own plates and utensils to help cut down on waste.

Our Gala takes place October 14. Interested in volunteering before or during the Gala and Picnic?
We need help throughout the weekend of October 13—15. Email Marta!

Partnership and Transformation: Pacific Integral programs call the Whidbey Institute home
Faced with a society in transition and a world in turmoil, the teams at the Whidbey Institute and Pacific Integral recognize the urgency behind developing human capacity to make generative change, and both organizations have landed upon a shared fundamental way forward. We’re shifting culture by helping individuals develop insight into themselves, hone collaborative skills, practice adaptability, integrate diverse perspectives, honor the wisdom in nature and in themselves, and expand their capacity to sit with complexity and paradox. It’s joyful and challenging, and it can’t be done alone. We’re honored to be in this world-changing work with the team at Pacific Integral. Click here to read about our partnership.
