Spring council/counsel/circle
Spring council is when all potential sites for the gathering are brought to any people who want to be involved in selecting a site.
People talk about critical issues and plant the seeds for a positive and healing gathering.
The council usually takes one to seven days and normally ends with either a consensus by silence among people at the council or an exodus of the majority of people heading to the preferred site. Spring council goes until a decision is reached by consensus or by foot.
Until spring council process determines a site, there is no home. This being said, spring council is usually but not always in within 100 miles of the area of where the best potential site(s) for the gathering are located.
Spring council takes as long as it takes to reach a decision. If you want to have a voice in the decision making process, please be there on the land. Once Spring Council reaches a decision, then we move to the land and start building the gathering aka Seed Camp. If you are not a self-sufficient gatherer and are not willing to do the work of preparing the gathering for family coming home, please don't show up until at least June 20th. Even then, water systems will be under construction, kitchens may not be prepared to feed anyone but their own crews, and engagement with government entities will be ongoing.
Everyone is welcome to participate in the spring council process!
When does Spring CCC start?
This year the council/counsel/circle starts June 10th. Check back about a week to ten days before June 10th for details.
