"West Bijou Ranch Reflections - #1 Gratitude. The days passed by quickly at West Bijou. Checking on the bison at sunrise became meditation, a morning ritual I will miss. Together with the others, I dove deeper into Holistic Management and learned more than I could have wished for - from the place, the animals, and the people. Byron facilitated our questions and curiosity masterly and weaved everything within this advanced training together with his knowledge and wisdom into a rich experience. I’ve met wonderful, inspiring people who I can now call friends. I look forward to meeting them all at some point in their context, on their farms, in their ecoregion. We all left with a deep feeling of connection and renewed hope. Active hope. Hope is a verb, not a passive state. I am deeply grateful for the days. Thank you. Mahalo. 🌺" — @leon_regenerative_journeys German Savory Hub Leader, @landregeneration #holisticmanagement #designingregenerativecultures #westbijou #westbijouranch #regenerativeagriculture
