Open to all with love and light

Port townsend, Washington,

United States

Hello!

Welcome.

We are gathering people to join our community. We have very large plans for our current endevor. We found 10acres of beautiful land, organic soil, all utilities installed. By Fall of 2006 we hope to own the land and start building.

Right now we are trying to find financial resources to pay for the land. We have opened up an Online Thrift store Through Ebay and are trying to raise money that way.

As soon as we can come up with the down payment for the Land we are going to start building. Our main building material is going to be cob or other natural, earth healthy means. Please visit our website to view the pans that we have in more details.

We wish you the best!
