Hey Friends, I am trained in OST. And, the folks in Asheville that I know of who are even more experienced than I are Ashley Cooper (who is in this group) and, I believe, Lucia White. I'm happy to investigate further. I've been longing for Open Space in Asheville and our region as those of us with capacity begin to think about a resilient, regenerative recovery.
