OUr Community Thanks You…
Thank you for awarding HNS a $10,000 Seed Grant this year. Your support has engaged us in a deepening of connection with our land and our community to bring about a clear and unified vision, in the form of a whole site design plan. I put together this landing page in an effort to share a clear and simple version of what has been a very deep process for us. You can get both a quick snap shot of our process and progress and you can also dig deeper should you like to!
