ABOUT

Rooted in the Cascadia bioregion, Conscious Growth is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to building community resilience and tending to regenerative culture.

Germinating in 2020 and guided by the elements — Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit —our events, programs, and projects support transformative experiences to help people connect, learn, heal and grow. Like deep roots reaching into fertile soil, our work nourishes both inner and outer landscapes, cultivating a world that lives in reciprocity.

​

To us, building community resilience means fostering the ability to adapt in the face of change. This involves strengthening local networks, supporting interdependence, and creating spaces where people can safely come together to share knowledge, skills, and resources. It means cultivating an awareness that each person plays an essential role in the web of life and we all have unique gifts to contribute to the system as a whole.

​

Through regenerative culture, we support practices that replenish both people and the land, co-creating an environment that can withstand and grow through challenges. We embrace the interconnection of all living things, designing practices and systems that nourish rather than deplete. It is a culture rooted in reciprocity and mutual aid, focused on restoring ecosystems, uplifting communities, and creating pathways toward long-term sustainability—planting the seeds for a world that thrives in harmony with nature.

​

Each of our initiatives is aligned with our framework of Elemental Activism, honoring the powerful forces that support life:

• 🏔 Earth symbolizes responsibility and resources, grounding our projects in sustainable materials and practices that restore and enrich the land.

• 💨 Air embodies communication, mindfulness, and breath, inspiring conscious dialogue and fostering open-mindedness within our community.

• 🔥 Fire ignites power, creativity, and embodiment, fueling the drive to innovate, uplift, and bring vision into action.

• 💧 Water represents healing, emotions, and care, guiding our work with compassion and commitment to emotional well-being.

• ✨ Spirit connects us all through reflection and inner growth, reminding us of our higher purpose and the interconnectedness of all life.

​

With strong values in Indigenous wisdom and a deep commitment to ecological and social justice, the vision of Conscious Growth is to elevate collective consciousness, awakening us to our profound responsibility to the Earth and each other, and fostering awareness that our actions shape the well-being of all life. We believe that in order to strengthen the collective capacity for resilience and regeneration, we must shift from a mindset of scarcity to a lifestyle of reciprocity. By honoring the elements that give us life, we hope to create a culture rooted in abundance and mutual care. Join us in cultivating resilience, tending regeneration, and evolving together.
