"Is the mythology real?" We're so happy that Front Porch Forum (they call it a "mythical land") is a topic of conversation between Mike Masnick and New_ Public co-director Eli Pariser . "Though the current popular narrative about social media seems to be that it is harmful and has little or no redeeming value, the truth (which a lot of people know) is that it also has a lot of value, and the potential to be even better." https://lnkd.in/eP74xt_4 #vermont #podcast #community #socialmedia #communityconnection #neighbors

"We need more platforms that are locally-rooted: not driven by a business model of maximum engagement and growth..., but rooted in designs and practices that foster cooperation and social trust, and that actually have no need for scale. Their fundamental business and governance models should be aligned to serve the local community rather than serving venture investors who need a 10x-plus return or bust." This conversation between Sam Pressler and Josh Kramer validates Front Porch Forum's model and the importance of local digital spaces. https://lnkd.in/eX5YSPye

Our Chief of Staff, Jason Van Driesche , had an amazing time and made some great connections at Radically Rural™ last week. "So inspiring to see folks from all over rural USA who are excited about the future of their towns. Huge thanks to Hannah Grimes for putting on such an excellent event!" https://lnkd.in/dRTpimxa

This weekend marks National Good Neighbor Day. Of course, we witness acts of neighborliness on Front Porch Forum every day. But, it's fun - and healthy - to add a dose of intentionality to this role in our community. We came upon some truly special photographs captured by Tara Wray for NPR during the height of the pandemic. (Take a look. They are lovely!) While that isolation is not required now, many Vermonters do live very much on their own day-to-day. Consider going out of your way this weekend to give an extra wave, pause for a chat, or offer to run an errand for your neighbor? Feel free to share your ideas here. https://lnkd.in/ew3ieh96 https://lnkd.in/eVtg2dMj

Some members of the Front Porch Forum team are driving south this week! Looking forward to sharing and learning about land, community, health, and journalism - all with a small-town, Main Street focus. Be sure to say hello if you're planning to be there!

James Curran and Susannah Kerest enjoyed chatting with professionals gathered at the Northwest Vermont REALTOR® Association Annual Meeting yesterday. Hearing Kevin Chu deliver the Vermont Futures Project vision for a more vibrant Vermont economy is always inspiring. Thanks to Troi Bachmann for hosting us. Have clients moving to/around Vermont? We'd love to welcome them to Front Porch Forum so they can get to know their new community more easily. We're happy to pop some of these fliers in the mail so that you can include them in your own welcome packets. Email memberoutreach@frontporchforum.com
