I’m a Canadian prairie farm kid turned grocer turned regen ag accelerator. I owned a seasonal grocery store whose focus was on local, in season regenerative and organic foods.
I kickstarted the savory institute hub in Manitoba and then spent the last 3.5 years living in New Zealand working with a start up who was seeking to “make regenerative action valuable”
I’m a regen ag enthusiast and am interested in how bioregional economies (social capital, financial capital, knowledge etc) can bring abundance.
I like being outside, walking in forests, swimming in rivers, gardening, food, people, music, and doing the doing.

Cory Sevin
I am “retired” from a 45 year career in healthcare. A nursing background was a foundation for finding and creating new ways to provide healthcare to teens, migrant families, individuals, families and communities; and new ways to provide care that were generative and life giving to those giving and recieving the care. A desire to help create environments where all can thrive-not just select few-was and is a directional force in my life. I am looking for communtiy to bring my energies, skills, and more to help craft a future that is life giving to all.

Working at the intersection of community building, filmmaking, sustainability, and education, Rose has created some effective tools with which to reinforce the importance of understanding how interconnected our world really is. Her film series of shorts, Connectivity Project, weaves together voice such as Fritjof Capra, Indigenous Wisdom Keepers, scientists, activists, and much more, empowering an understanding that our actions indeed make a huge difference in the world. Along with curricula that accompanies this work, schools and focus groups from 5th grade through adulthood have benefited from the conversations that are sparked by the this deeper way of understanding.
She is seeking ways for these films to be useful in the world, so please reach out if you want to learn more.

With a background in Botany, Herbal Medicine and sustainability, a sense of place has always been forefront, informing her actions. She has taken that sense of place and the importance of understanding how our actions impact others, and created tools to inspire awe, interconnections and a sense of responsibility.
