Forming Formed: 2011

Autonomy
Drummond, Montana, Western Montana,
United States
(forming in western Montana)
eastern Washington, Washington, Colville,
United States
 Forming a community in eastern Washington or western Montana for people who want a safe haven in what are certain to be some very difficult times very soon. The property is 20 to 40 acres in Drummond/Bearmouth area, well off the beaten path. Cost to join is optional. If you want to have a say in things, you'll have to pay. If you want to work in exchange for a place to live, that's okay too. The cost to join will be low and flexible, no more than 4K, and will be a part ownership. There will be no guru, no one to tell you what to think or how to think. My personal goal is to be as self-sufficient as possible in terms of food and energy, and would like to produce enough for barter or sale. Outside sources of income welcome, not necessary. Fellow veterans especially welcome. People with substance abuse problems not allowed. The land purchase will take place in the spring, sooner if anyone expresses an interest in joining.
