| The BUEC, as we're called, is an up-and-coming vegan community. We invite interested vegetarian-to-vegan persons who are into exploring communal and community living.
BUEC is currently looking for acreage in the states of Maine, Vermont, and North Carolina.
Various websites on which BUEC is featured include GreenPeople, Intentional Communities, Idealist.org, VegHaven, RainbowCircle, and others.
Briefly, BUEC debunks animal consumption, including that of sentient plants; teaches personal development through veganism; and empowers plant- and animal-rights activism. BUEC intends to become a vegan commune that lives by Good Samaritanship and comports itself with our neighboring communities as a Good Samaritan Commune-ity and E Center that does not discriminate.
We will need people with building, repair, computing, farming and animal husbandry/veterinary, community liason, and other skills. BUEC intends to build and maintain an animal sanctuary and a healing center on its property, and to build or maintain small condo-style units or apartments, some homes, and other innovative living quarters. | Community location is placed at the center of the zip/postal code, city/state, or city/country (not based on street addresses) |
