GROVE
The Grove is an organic archive drawn from years of research, practice, and collaborative projects. The Grove is both a carefully indexed library and a living garden ~ a collective learning space containing a multitude of writings, images, and other media. The Grove connects to resonant people and projects, and honors the lineages, values, and commitments of the vivid grove.
