Care Collective
Christiana, Delaware,
United States
Planting in Spring 2012
 The Care Collective is an intention between two people at the moment to live in a communal fashion sharing home ownership with others in or near Delaware. We also hold the vision of caring for each other, ourselves and for those not as fortunate in a balanced manner. We are looking for a place with a few acres and can house around 10 or so. We are looking to open by June, so keep posted!
We have participated in the experiment known as the Christiana Coop, we have learned from those experiences and hope to restart fresh and with a clearer intention. We hope to host meditation nights, self improvement workshops, writing workshops and community potlucks and parties.
If you are just curious about community, join our facebook forum so that others in or around Delaware can connect about community: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_203536936324052&ap=1
