We are so excited to take this huge step forward in our capital raising campaign. As many might know the Dashers took a huge step of faith 2 years ago this January and waked away from a good job and home to find a way start this huge outreach to women in troubled pregnancy. As the months passed and we seemed to be taking step after step backwards we are please to now say our momentum forward is promising. This last March I was hired by N2, a wonderful company, to help publish community magazines/newsletters. This decision brought us back home to Cleveland and we are proud to announce our first publication, The Valley. All the profits to this project will donated...for now...to Chrysalis. This January we will launch our second publication, The Mill, in neighboring Gates Mills and Chrysalis will take ownership of both. This will enable our outreach to make it first big step towards The Farm element of the project.
That said, we have begun talks with the Western Reserve Land Conservancy about a long term managing lease. This awesome organization is responsible for protecting thousands of arces in the Northeast Ohio region and are looking for qualified organizations to help with their hope. I have informally made them aware of our desire to farm a parcel of land in accordance to their program. An organic heirloom seasonal agricultural farm is the foundation of our Co-op and we would be honored to preserve a piece of our home's unique and precious landscape. Please feel free to call or email us for further details or ask how you can help. We are a long way off from the fulfillment of this huge hope but are still passionate about its purpose. We are commited to seeing this through and hope to partner with Radical individuals who see it potential to changes lives.
