| We have three farms, 30 miles apart in the Adirondacks, near Sacandaga Lake, totaling 210 acres. We grow medicinal herbs, build wood-fired water heaters, work on mirror solar collectors, steam, fresnels, and thermo-electrics. Minimum 17 hours of work per week; additional optional work counts toward land ownership and profit shares. We could help you start your own solar technology business here.
We have a good library, piano, sailboats, and a windsurfer. We are very interested in bees, flywheels, alternative-energy vehicles, small airships, steel-fiber-reinforced ferrocement, cave dwellings, aquaculture, and winter ice refrigeration. We prefer using dumped or surplus material, such as paper, envelopes, lumber, steel, and bananas with brown spots. We'd rather pick up firewood at the town dump than cut down trees.
We respect all religions/spiritual paths, and propose herbal medicine as an adjuvant rather than an alternative to modern medicine. We take very seriously environmental degradation, the destruction of indigenous cultures, cruelty against humans and animals, television, waste, war, peace, and science.
We take a bit less seriously astrologers, therapists, political correctness, the New Age, disco, and the New World Order, by which we mean that astrologers, numerologists, iridologists, kinesiologists, and even phrenologists ought to expect some good-humored kidding if they come here. | Community location is placed at the center of the zip/postal code, city/state, or city/country (not based on street addresses) |
