In September 2023 Adrian and Robert with 8 friends gathered in Otavalo with their guide Ivan Suarez (All About Ecuador). They began their altitude acclimation with local hikes up successively more difficult volcanoes before setting off for their ultimate destination – the village of Pinan in the high Andes. Along the way they visited indigenous communities, a coffee finca, a cloud forest hummingbird sanctuary, as well as the equatorial line during the fall equinox.

Building on Common Ground, a workshop event hosted by Learning Again in Almonte (an MMPL partner organization), Nov. 1 at the Almonte Old Town Hall.
What do you love about your community? What do you fear you’ll lose with growth? What excites you about our community’s potential?
Last year, Learning Again In Almonte hosted the six-week program, This Place We Call Home, in which seven experts shared innovative possibilities to deal with the tsunami of growth coming to Mississippi Mills. After that program, attendees wanted to know how to contribute ideas and create structures to nurture and shape our future… so, the workshop Building on Common Ground is this next step!
