The Fire Circle
Russell or Heath, Massachusetts,
United States
 The Fire Circle: I am looking for those who wish to live off the grid—anybody who is willing to give it a shot, maybe even part-time for the spring or summer months. I am looking for those who love the idea of living and working with other self-sustaining individuals. People with any and all skills can be of use: doctors, lawyers, woodworkers, architects, musicians and artists, seamstresses, cooks, gardeners, teachers, mechanics. If you have a passion for any of these pursuits and a passion to live away from society as you know it, possibly to sell goods to the world, to buy seeds or livestock, and oh yeah, a passion for the land, please get in touch with me. If you would like to move to or are all ready close to western Massachussetts, as far as I know there are no rural (out in the woods) communities...YET! Let’s make our own reality and not have it run by politicians and a government that has lost touch with what is important in life.
Thank you,
John Albert
