Building Comm-Unity... Check out the vision and mission... To know the person..

Vision Statement
To create a healthy community of diverse and socially conscious individuals in order to steward land through sustainable development and educate through practical application.

To bring together a diverse group of dedicated individuals who are searching for healthy, socially conscious, and environmental alternatives to the mainstream unhealthy and fragmented social structure. We seek to draw people together who wish to pool financial and material resources, skills, sweat, and visions in an effort to create an intentionally formed community composed of a tight circle of family and friends. Stewardship of the land and sustainable development of the community’s property shall be at the forefront of all community visions and decisions. Children are a key community element as we create a caring and safe “village” setting for community members to raise children and outreach to local youth to help educate and inspire young people in the surrounding area. We will also work towards financial self-sustainability through the formation of a solid foundation for socially conscious small businesses related to healing, education, sustainable living, and sustainable agriculture.
We are looking all across the U.S. for the place to put our roots down right now. We would love to hear from anyone who knows of specific land out there that is crying to be protected and that could nourish our community in return.sustainable living, and sustainable agriculture.

Hey Kidz,
Check out my pics page for a few shots of some land we are currently attempting to buy. It is in town but a HUGE lot with a three bedroom house and three seperate units with bathrooms and kitchens already installed. Two of these studios can be expanded with permits to have multiple bedrooms and we would still have tons of space to garden. It is the perfect place for an Urban Permaculture project. Plus, get this, its on Friendly Street. We are excited and getting our financing toget... read more

Babble gurgle stream burble slowly churning
Giggle the water sprites.
Distant whistle feverish chirp caw trilling love song
beat steady rhythm perfected over eons.
Shrill praise for life turning spirals up towards sky
