Forming Formed: 2007
Naturally Home
we have just under 11 acres, with woods and meadow, private, with a dwelling that could accomidate 1 or 2 more families, New York, east coast,
United States
 we are two families that are looking to form a community where like minded families can live and garden together and have some animals. at first live in a community house while other dwellings are being built. sharing thoughts and ideas to help improve ones self and the environment. we want to build eco friendly buildings and be self sufficiant. to limit our impact on the earth. where people can be themselves, and free to choose how to dress, or not dress depending. we are looking to be free of societies expectations, where our children and grand children can grow up free and safe. a place where the land is owned by community members not just one person or family. a place where everyone has an equal say.
