Okay, I'm fairly sure that this is a previously unused term, but it is a good one. Synergy, by its nature implies diversity. But it is more than a random collection; it is a rather precise mix. Understanding the mix is an important science.
As we think of affecting a culture of localism in the Brazos Valley, the synergistic diversity is crucial. What are the components that will allow the concepts of localism to transform from an abstract idea into a value broadly embraced? I am working from the perspective that those components are the market, the arts and an increased understanding of our bio-region.
Projects like developing an enhanced farmers market, developing a community garden and creating festivals that are a celebration of our local community, bring these components into what we hope will be synergies of shifting paradigms.
