Springdale, near Spokane, Washington,
United States
 Greetings.
They said, “If you build it, they will come.” Well, we built it...that's correct, 11 acres of some of the most beautiful land in northeast Washington State.
One of the wonderful things is that it is also well within commuting distance of the city of Spokane, Washington.
The property is set back away from the main road, so we have enough seclusion that you can run naked in the fields if that makes you happy. And on the side away from the road? Well, you'd have to wander well over two miles to find another crossroad. Of course, that would be wandering through timber and fields…
Would you like to help create a self-sustainable lifestyle? We have, on average, over 24 inches of some of the best loam you could ever want to turn a shovel in.
We are sex- and size-positive and seek like-minded individuals to join our community. We believe that sexuality is a personal choice and that relationship styles should be decided by those involved, not by some church or government agency. All we ask in regard to religion, politics, and sexual tendencies is that everyone respect each other’s opinions and beliefs.
We currently have an original 1250 sq ft log home, built in the 1880s, to serve as the main house. We can add on or build separate as new members join us here.
As they say, there’s no free lunch here, as each member is expected to contribute not just physically but financially as well. As in any endeavor of this scope, there are and will be bills to pay and maintenance to be done, as well as infrastructure to create, upgrade, and maintain.
So the question arises: Are you a BUILDER and a DOER? Or a wisher and a dreamer? We seek those ready to BUILD and DO...ready to help build a community/family/tribe... and live the way we were created to live: together, in peace and harmony.
So if this sounds like something you would like to be a part of, drop us a line or give us a call. We'd love to hear from you.
