Our first gathering in the Western U.S. included 14 practitioners, experts and community stakeholders from 4 countries including the eastern & western U.S., eastern & western Canada, Mexico & Australia. This gathering served as a seminal visioning session to gather & discuss preliminary aspects of our collective mission and how to positively influence and impact the 5-MeO/Bufo community toward developing basic ideas and concepts in regard to best practices, responsibilities and duty of care as well as how to best coalesce and begin organizing as a global collective of aligned, independent and conscientious sovereign practitioners.
