We are so excited to be a part of the wonderful team working on Radically Rural? and practicing radical imagination with people from rural communities across the nation. ??
Resonance is the force that turns a single vibration into something greater—amplified, echoed, and sustained. It’s how ideas take root, how movements grow, and how rural communities thrive. This year’s summit theme, Rural Resonance, explores the inherent interdependence that makes all life possible, and rural life is no different. No one community, sector, or species can thrive in isolation. Rather, we resonate--each strengthened by the whole. Over three days, we’ll all learn and share something new, build unexpected collaborations, and reimagine what’s possible for small communities everywhere. From local journalism to libraries, land use to creative economies, simple (yet essential) concepts of sharing to complex systems-level analysis, we hope that Radically Rural 2025 will reverberate for years to come. With the guidance of the Resonance Network–a network of healers, leaders, artists, survivors, and storytellers creating visionary spaces to access creativity–we’ll tap into radical imagination, worldbuilding, and storytelling to envision thriving rural futures. With transformational plenaries, hands-on sessions, and a new track-focused additional day, we invite you to be part of the future we’re shaping together.
