Drumshire
Scotland,
United Kingdom
 Things have changed in the last couple of years. We would like to start or join a community/co-op in the Scottish Highlands. We are looking to find like-minded people looking to settle down, build a home, and live in an environmentally sustainable way, just to start with. We are interested in people who care about themselves, each other, and the world around them. We would like to build environmentally stable homes and grow our own crops.
Things we are looking for in a community:
*All things being recycled in one way or another.
*No chemicals being used for anything, cleaning or otherwise.
*Mostly vegetarians or aspiring vegetarians.
