Recognition

Every project was built by numerous people relentlessly committed to creativity, community, and stewardship.

This note is a modest recognition of them all, from mentor to teammate, whose shared ideas, access, and partnership continue to make this work possible.

And to the land; to those who stewarded long before me.

Photos are credited to the project owner, as noted with each scope where I contributed.
