Flynne O’Neill Wiley, optimist & founder of The Guilded Edge

Certified in Aging-in-Place by NAHB and Permaculture from the Center of BioRegional Living.

 

The Guilded Edge originated from the observation that the truly most innovative ideas emerged during unstructured conversations between people in different fields and experiences. Between scientists and artists, CFOs and landscapers, musicians and builders, they brought to each other alternative perspectives that organically sprouted opportunities and solutions to shared challenges. I was transitioning out of a corporate world, taking off my CEO heels, and getting my certification in Permaculture when it struck me that we - just like plants - flourish in “guilds” of varied companions and that a diversity of life springs up along every edge.

I’m on a mission to grow this network of curious and cool individuals that are connected by shared values & aligned interests, and looking for grounded support to co-create projects that give back a truly living wage while building a much more livable world. We can make it better day by day.

The first phase of development is focused on local projects using natural materials and efficient systems to create healthier and more enjoyable places for us to live and work in. Our time – like water, like energy - is a precious resource, let us use it wisely.
