Stephen Shibley, has been a member of TLS since 2007.   Stephen was a presenter at the 2007 and 2008 Gatherings as well as Chair of the 2009 TLS Gathering Planning Team.  He was also a founding circle member of Labyrinth Network Northwest.  

Stephen owns and operates Fertile Ground, LLC as a practicing, licensed landscape architect and contractor, as well as labyrinth designer/builder/enthusiast. 

"The labyrinth found me in 2004, little did I know, in order to gift me with a practice, a tool for transformation, that would help me journey through a very challenging part of my life. I was so moved and transformed in my walks with the labyrinth that designing and building permanent and temporary labyrinths became part of my professional practice. It is a joy to give people and communities access to inclusive tools for transformation through the installation and use of labyrinths."

As part of his joy-full path, Stephen is a father of two brilliant and beautiful daughters, a lover of the great outdoors, travel, food and gardening.
