    You get to know people in your life better and what makes them tick/what sparks joy. It helps strengthen or build relationships! Sometimes I can be a bit too competitive, so I need to remind myself that this time is about having fun, not trying to win… though sometimes it’s difficult!

    Anything that attracts cute bees is OK in my book! I already knew that I wanted to replant my gardens with more pollinator plants, but didn't realize that resources were available to find LOCAL ones until clicking through the links here. I've got a lot of plant buying to do and will pick plants from the pollinator list! Pollinators are so...

    amazing how this event changed the way I thought. I began looking for documentaries and corporate teams that would impact my score...and my way of thinking!  Clever way to use my competitive spirit

    I think there is a lot of power in the people, and volunteering in our community is one way to ensure a community lasts and is, therefor, sustainable. We need to help each other out.

    It helps me keep things in perspective and be grateful for some of the simpler things I'm blessed to have in my life. Because of this, I'm motivated to carry forward this positive attitude and, in a "pay it forward" method, take care of our community through volunteering.

    More in -person or virtual discussions with neighbors is key to make sure thoughts are being expressed and decisions are therefor made with consideration to the values people hold in their own neighborhood. I've also seen a lot more surveys popping up, which is great if people actually take time to fill them out.
