Welcome Home! Welcome to the FOLLE!!
WELCOME HOME!!!!!
Hey fae :)
More details about the FOLLE and the meeting:
First off, if you're just learning about the FOLLE, here is the written proposal that was submitted to the Great Circle:
1 - Introduction
Hellooo peeps this is Pingouin / Robin.
One of the things I’ve been thinking a lot over my first year as a Steward is knowledge retention. I see faeries wanting to get involved in projects but as soon as they are not on the sanctuary it’s not clear for them what to do or who to talk to. Some organizers sometime lack critical knowledge about the land which can lead to difficult situations (plumbing and electricity especially). It’s not clear for all the Stewards which document is stored where, or what is the password or linked email address for this one specific tool. We also have a lot of lovely booklets and zines and ideas and workshops thrown around all the time.
As our community grows and shifts, the need for a shared memory becomes more vital. I would really like to have one place that, any time there’s any question about Folleterre, could make getting involved, getting in touch, just a little smoother and easier...
2 – Proposal
So I propose the creation of the FOLLE: a communal library and digital sanctuary where faeries, new and seasoned, can access and contribute practical wisdom, community lore, and land-based know-how. This library will serve as a central, searchable archive covering some topics such as:
- Orientation support for new faeries (e.g., land etiquette, roles, integration)
- Information on Steward activity that is accessible to everyone (e.g., decision log, meeting minutes, yearly activity reports)
- An updated version of the good gathering guide
- Land and surroundings guide (e.g., garden, surrounding wildlife, neighbors)
- Practical tips (e.g., what is often bought and where to buy them, easy recipes to cook for large groups)
- Infrastructure tips (e.g., plumbing systems, electricity, trash management)
- Activity resources (e.g., morning meeting rituals, workshops, seasonal magic)
- Emergency information (e.g., hospitals, contact protocols, safety maps)
Once there is enough content in the library there is a strong desire to print some zines and have them in little booklets all over the sanctuary.
Finally, if you already want to start writing, and don't mind the current chaos, you'll find everything you need to know on this page: https://folle.folleterre.org/books/everything-about-the-folle/page/how-to-contribute-to-the-folle
