Forming
This page last updated:2/3/2006
Sweetwater Farm
California,
United States
(Northern California)
 We are a few people in the process of forming and creating a community in the Northern California area, such as Sonoma County, Mendocino County, or Humboldt County. We are looking for other like-minded folks who are creative, down-to-earth, positive people who like to garden, build, make art and music, share stories and meals, support one another, communicate compassionately, and create with the intention to form a community on a piece of land (yet to be determined). Vegetarians and omnivores welcome, freedom of spirituality essential, but eclectics, mystics and pagans are so far coming together. Monthly meeting to discuss what kind of community we are dreaming of will soon take place in Santa Rosa, California. Those who are interested, please email for further information.
