## Summary

The EF Silviculture Society is a loose group of individuals from outside the Ethereum Foundation who give the EF informal counsel on tending Ethereum's forests, including dark ones, to keep its core values of open source, privacy, security and censorship resistance. According to the group, Ethereum's success depends on talented, committed developers building with these values in mind, and the EF's ethos and work have always centered on them. Fifteen members are named by their handles, including @matthew_d_green and @pcaversaccio.

## Article

The EF Silviculture Society: a loose collection of individuals from outside the Foundation who provide informal counsel to the EF in tending to the (dark or otherwise) forests in the infinite garden of Ethereum, to make sure we sustain the core values of open source, privacy, security and censorship resistance.

The roots of the infinite garden are nourished by soils rich in these core values. Ethereum’s success depends on having talented and committed developers building with these values in mind, and EF’s ethos and work has always been centered around them.
