Visitor Process: We welcome visitors to join us in the community April to August. We are happy to show you around the land, answer questions, share meals and tea with you and put a harvest basket in your arm or a hammer in your hand. If you would like to come for a day or an over night visit please contact us ahead of time as schedules very greatly around here and we want to be sure that some one is available to be present for you during your visit. It can also be difficult to stay in the flow of a day’s activities with folks stopping in unannounced, so please use your intuition and mindfulness when planning a visit, even a few hours notice is helpful. You can contact us any of three way: writing, e-mail or by phone. (see our contact page) What to bring We ask that all visitors planning to stay over night bring food, camping and sleeping equipment, a phone card, an open mind, willingness to pitch in and compassion in their heart. A suggested donation of $5 per night/adult to help with expenses ($0 for children) is suggested but we will not turn people away for lack of funds, after all every thing comes around in the end. The community shares one sometimes two meals a week where every one brings some food to share if they can and we enjoy cooking, eating, and cleaning up together, visitors are welcome at these meals. If you are visiting for the day donations are gratefully accepted, especially if you intend to stay for a meal. Community members, interns and visitors are welcome to host potlucks and share meals in the common house.We do ask that awareness and consideration is kept when using the common house space and the kitchen is cleaned up after use. We also strongly encourage visitors in helping out around the community with projects that are underway during your time with us. Examples may be working in the food or herb gardens, harvesting berries, feeding animals, gathering or chopping fire wood, painting murals, making land sculptures, cultivating a spring head, and maintaining walking trails or helping to processing food in the kitchen. There are always projects happening. There is also ample time daily to enjoy the cool creek, go hiking or sit in the shad and enjoy the abundance around us. Agreements We ask that all spaces and facilities used by visitors are in as good or better condition then as they found them We ask visitors to be mindful and responsible for their health and safety during their stay. Please do not come for a visit if you are ill, calling a head of time to see if any one in the community is currently ill will also support you and your family in staying healthy while helping the greater community in not spreading an illness. Please use common sense while you are here. We want every one to have a safe and enjoyable visit. If an accident happened and some one is hurt please let a community member know so that we can assist where needed and medical attention can be obtained quickly if it is needed. We are 45 minutes away from the nearest hospital facility. We ask that visitors respect the private spaces of the residence at Still Spirit. We ask that while visitors are sharing time here they agree to utilizing the community agreements that help foster a healthy living relationship at Still Spirit.
