About WisConfluence
These three health freedom oriented organizations were each born independently out of a desire to connect during the pandemic.
* Common Ground (Duluth, Minnesota)
* CoCreating Community (Twin Cities, Minnesota)
* Driftless United for Health Freedom (DUHF in Viroqua, Wisconsin).In August 2023 a handful from each group converged at an annual summer picnic in Duluth, MN. Afterwards, a few of us basked on boulders in the sun at the Confluence of Amity Creek and the Lester River, immersing our feet in its waters. An inspiration sprang forth to bring regional groups together. Two months later, that seed blossomed into the first inaugural Confluence November 2023, focusing on: Courage through Connection.In 2024, Courageous Conversations to Re-Imagine Community, explored solutions that exist outside the box, in the private domain, like: Alternative Economics, Private Trusts & Private Membership Associations, Equity, and Social Threefolding. This was the year Threefold Driftless joined as a co-sponsor.Now here we are in 2025. Let’s come together to create coherent space for: Courageous Living In Changing Times.You are warmly invited to Viroqua, the heart of Wisconsin's Driftless majesty, to birth new forms of Relating and Re-enlivening; Dreaming up ways to MAKE IT REAL in your own home town.Also a shout out to our sisters and brothers of Confluence at Sovereignty Ranch in Texas that also sprang forth in 2023. The synchronicity of these and other sparks igniting across the earth affirms a shared resonant impulse towards freedom, connection and stewardship; shifting into The Way Forward.
SPECIAL SHOUTOUT to our sisters and brothers of Confluence at Sovereignty Ranch in Texas that also sprang forth in 2023. The synchronicity of these and other sparks igniting across the earth affirms a shared resonant impulse towards freedom, connection and stewardship -- illuminating The Way Forward.
