Self described Venture Socialist seeking People Interested In Building a Home on their Own Lot in a Eco Affordable Subdivision. This is a Social Benefit Project which Seeks to Provide Affordable Accessible Home Ownership.  As the Project Founder (Developer), I am prepared to take only a Small Development Fee.

I am seeking Assistance from like minded individuals as Co Developers ie  Builders, Planners, Government Grant Experts, Web Designers, Surveyors, Road and Utility Contractors and Social Media Influencers.

The Land sits on a Bench overlooking the Northern Desert Village of Cache Creek,  British Columbia.  Cache Creek is located 4 hours North of Vancouver.

The Property is Spilt Zoned allowing for both Small Lots and Farming Activities.   The Farm land will Community Owned.   Services required will dictate the Lot Price. The more DYI Infrastructure activities Community Members Engage in the Lower the Lot Costs for those Individuals and All Members.

There is Water Available at the Lot Line which needs to be brought up the Hill and Stored.  This will provide Gravity flow water pressure to the homes.

Eco Friendly Attributes Include:

Solar Power

Earth Tube cooling

Passive Solar Design

Grey Water Recapture

Breezeways for 3 Season Out Door Activities.

At Present, there are Three Cost Effective Home Designs Contemplated 1 1/2 Story Stick Built, Straw Bale, and S.I.Panels.          Earth Ship, Cob and other Non Conventional Designs are Welcome Subject to Local and Provincial Regulations.

As Cache Creek is a Hot Rod Town, a Community Shop is planned, where Members can work on their Vehicles, Assist Each Other and Socialize.

This Project is at Ground Zero and I am looking for Like Minded Persons to Assist in Making  Eco Affordable Housing Ownership a Reality in the Province of British Columbia.

We hope to become a thriving community centered around local food and organic farming that feeds our region, increases food resiliency and food sovereignty while also building affordable housing for our members in an eco-village setting.

This cooperative is in its early stages and we are recruiting members who wish to join in this vision.

A moderately successful farm and food business is already established with markets both direct and wholesale, with lots of opportunities for members to explore further.

When members join, they get shared ownership of the land and the farm businesses, and a leased plot of land in the eco-village to build a home on.

Nest – (New Earth Sanctuary) is birthed from a natural receptivity to the ascension process that the earth and humanity are going through. We come together to co-create a sanctuary in nature where we anchor and embody this new reality of light emerging.

We are perched in the middle of two beautiful valleys; surrounded by vibrant jungle. Blessed with a river and a smaller creek.

We have 35 hectares, 10 hectares of this was cow pasture land that is now a fruit forest; planted with many varieties of fruit trees, a third of which are already producing. We are in the process of starting to grow more vegetables.

As a current small team of members we are innately focused on our inner work and spiritual connection, yet also we are very practical and grounded in our devotion to the project. We are working passionately to create the foundations for the vision of the sanctuary that is being manifested through us.

We have a satisfying level of self sustainability already, with much of our food coming from the land. We collect rain water for drinking and other needs. We run our electricity through solar power systems.

We are calling in more people in resonance with this vision to join us. We are open for new members, guests and volunteers. As a member you buy a share in the community. You get to choose a quarter hectare lot, and own a share of all communal assets (land, tools, fruit forest, produce, community buildings etc).

We are slowly rising from the ashes of the pandemic and a year of major renovations (improvements!), and have several bedrooms of different sizes available in our 41 unit building in the heart of the Mission. We’re all on one floor with a brand new stainless steel kitchen, co-working office, media room, and outdoor courtyard.

A domestic acreage is more than just land. It’s sovereignty. It’s a return to the natural way, where love leads and community blossoms. You decide what you want to plant, build and nurture. You can disconnect from the noise, and reconnect to your truth. It’s a space for healing, creation and connection-to yourself, loved ones and the land It’s where art meets soil, where dreams have room to expand, and where freedom isn’t just an idea, it is a lifestyle.

Read all about us on our website. We are for families only 🙂

We would be open to singles or couples staying with us on a volunteer basis short-term, but after we are more established.

We are 1 family at the moment, with a couple of families potentially joining us already. We only recently went public with our intentional community idea.

As a community our focuses can be summed up in connection, autonomy, and play.

To be clear, autonomy is merely a mutual respect for each other’s control and ownership over their own bodies, minds, and spirits. This includes even the smallest children-  and responding to their, sometimes masked or haphazard, communication with connection and respect 🙂

We value autonomy for children and adults alike, likeminded people having easy access to other likeminded people (including children), children being involved in daily activities as equal participants (with appropriate changes and accommodations for their size and ability). We value gentle and curious approaches to anyone’s behavior and needs- seeing emotions as valid and always with reasonable cause. We have a Waldorf-style, Sudbury-style perspective toward education, and value risky play in nature (as we learn to personally let go more and more of our in-built desire to emphasize caution and control). We do not think having an “educational” backing for activities for children is helpful, for example, “today we’re going to stack cups in color categories to work on hand-eye coordination and color recognition”. That works against our relationships with children and has proven to be a waste of time. We value play as work and work as play. We value “teaching”, but in a myriad of ways that only occasionally use direct verbal information-giving. Teaching looks like a million different things, and often, its indirect lessons over a long course of time. Kids only listen and truly learn from the people they respect and want to emulate in one way or another, so before we value teaching, we value being an admirable, respectable person ourselves, first. Living in community gives innumerable opportunities for everyone to greater embody clear and nonviolent communication, consideration for others, generosity, FUN, mature conflict resolution, and so much more. This might be the best “lesson” we could ever give our children… Additionally, we think children have a lot to teach us as well, maybe more than we have to teach them, if we are truly present with them and engaged.

Our goal here is to create the healthiest environment for families to thrive. Basically, re-villaging with a consideration for the decades to come and what sustainability actually means as we set up the community… i.e. maybe it’s not the most sustainable to focus on the Earth before humans. Maybe we can’t and shouldn’t do it all alone or within our own strict property lines. Maybe everyone is burnt out and stressed out for a deeper reason. If we focus on each other, consideration (and a true feeling of time and spaciousness) for the place will naturally follow because we are all being genuinely cared for within trusted and proximally close relationships. We believe this is especially so for people with a forethought and care towards the next generation

Secondarily, we value the natural world, as we are personally invested in natural building and interested in growing our own food, permaculture, food forests, incorporating ancient ways of living and working, wearing/using natural materials, maybe living off-grid, etc., BUT those things are only considerations after valuing connection, relationships, and humans as medicine for each other. Food is medicine, of course, but human connection is way better.

We value primitive, ancestral skills and moving like our bodies are made to- primitive to homesteading hand skills, parkour, climbing, dancing, wrestling, “human movement” based on things like “Evolve, Move, Play”, group games, making music and singing together. For us, its obvious that these activities naturally build up community ties and trust and lead to a peaceful community culture.

We are not a spiritual/religious group. We have a Christian upbringing, but have worked hard to deconstruct that. Nia leans European pagan with an emphasis on her Welsh and Germanic heritage and Sylas is interested in what different philosophers have to say throughout time, currently looking through Jung’s work.

Here is an excerpt from our home page on our website,

“Since our daughter was born several years ago we’ve been on a passionate mission to find or create a village of like-minded families; a close-knit, fun-loving, committed community that respects children’s autonomy, nurtures their whole being, models healthy relationships for them with peaceful and open communication, creates easy access for children to be with other children, encourages them to have full participation in community life, builds together, grows together, explores ancient ways of living and crafting together, occasionally travels together, and invests in our children’s futures together.

​Don’t get us wrong, we don’t want to do everything together (we like alone time too), let’s just be really incredible neighbors that decide to stick together and work (play) towards a common vision.

​Grab a warm drink and have fun dreaming with us.”

We initially had the website focusing on connecting with people first before deciding on a place, but we really can’t imagine a better place on earth for this than northern Idaho. We have SCOURED the globe, physically and virtually, to find this exact place. Nia has contacted the most obscure people on facebook comments and lonely places of the Earth for anyone that could connect us with anything they know similar to what we’re envisioning. We’ve found specific cultures that do a good job at respecting childrens’ autonomy and including them in daily life and 3 potential intentional communities that are similar to this in Europe and India. Lots of underground workings of unschool networks around the globe, especially in places that don’t allow that sort of thing. If you don’t jive with our vision, we most likely have a good place in mind for your family if you contact us. Personally, we ultimately felt such a burden for the future of America and the plight of children here that we decided we needed to start something here instead of leave. Let’s talk if you feel the same or if you’re down to leave and would like some resources/connections.

Although the dream of a sustainable community in San Miguel de Allende (SMA), Mexico, manifested mostly during the Covid years, it had its origins much earlier. Our only Mexican founder had family in the area and used to visit SMA as a teenager. It was during one visit to the SMA area, many years ago, that this idea was conceived. Then, in January 2021, a small group of independent alternative thinkers came together and began to have a conversation about making this a reality. With backgrounds in natural health, education, art, engineering and business, they realized that they had a lot to offer.

By January 2022, a core group of six founding families had formed and was able to place an offer on a property called “Rancho Lacayo” near SMA. By the end of 2022, the sale had been finalized and the new name of “Rancho Ecological Sekkan” had been registered. From this point on, these founding six families continued to meet weekly to bring into reality what was imagined by an idealistic young teenager many years ago.

The community is founded on an agreed alignment with a Spiritually based universal consciousness that embodies the principles of love, peace, respect, harmony and Oneness.  Love is our way – The Heart Center Sanctuary is a place for peace and tranquility.  A place to turn within and enter into that stillness and silence that is our home and true sanctuary.  This is a place where judgement disappears and our religion becomes Love.  We embrace the goodness in all of us, and therefore respect different belief traditions.  At the core, we believe we are all One and through contemplation all separation is made whole.

After being home and the sacred land of the Cherokee Indians, The property became home for a school, from K-12, from 1949 to 1978.  Many years past and it sat abandoned after being sold at an auction and, then, it was reborn in 2007 when the rehabilitation of the school buildings began.  it is now a pristine, wonderfully secluded, 25 acre parcel of wooded land and resources, with mixed-use buildings:  Residential and Commercial, as well as, a restorative retreat for the mind, body, and spirit.

The property is surrounded by national forest, spread over 3 mountain ridges and is close to beautiful rivers and lakes, as well as, The Smoky Mountains National Park, Nantahala National Forest, and Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, just to mention a few of the area natural destinations.

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.” Henry David Thoreau

The Heart Center Sanctuary has some great infrastructure already established, including roads, clean mountain water, 3 cabins, large gym, the Sacred Choice Cafe, Meditation facility, tiny home spaces. yurts, community garden and picnic area.

Finca Sagrada, where the stars seed the earth.

We are a multigenerational farm community nestled in a secluded small valley close to Vilcabamba in the mountains of Southern Ecuador.

The property is diversified with approximately twenty acres of irrigated pastures, food forest and gardens, plus an additional eight hundred acres of mountain land, bounded by a river and stream.

This sacred space leads visitors to easily connect to self, community and the planet. It is a place where heaven and earth meet.

Currently we are 7 committed adults with a handful of children living on the land. We envision a thriving community that is multicultural and has a variety of socio-economic levels. This would include farmers, families, healers, teachers, innovators, digital nomads, and retirees who feel drawn to our mission statement and our vision. Housing includes a mix of community and private dwellings.

Have you ever wanted to help create a closed loop food security system in a challenging and harsh climate plus learn new skill sets? We are building a stewardship center in the high desert of Northwest New Mexico at 7400 ft. With 6 to 10 in of rain a year and 90 to 100 growing days. We also forage and raise rabbits and poultry for meat and eggs.

We are a neurodiverse/autistic multi-generational group of trans/queer/ 2s individuals with a spectrum of extensive experience, working together to support each other in thriving and healing offering Qigong/ Tai chi practice daily.

The second goal is to build infrastructure to provide sanctuary for trans and autistic folks fleeing the current regime.

We are currently finishing establishing a 2 zone permaculture food Forest system and beginning work on dry land farming projects.

– April: Install the Zuni waffle beds, basins and berms that will provide the dryland farming with water

– May: Begin planting the area with seeds saved from last year and native bred cultivars. Creating terraced pasture for livestock feed.

– May-Sept Establishing the native plant nursery and utilizing these plants to provide structure and protection for the dryland farming.

– Later in the season building a wallpini and improving the existing greenhouse. Butchering rabbits and preparing hides, doing some building projects!

– April-Sept Improving the undeveloped campsite area across the road for visitors. Creating established paths to preserve cryptobiotic soil. Restoring the meadow. Doing fire safety Management and controlled burns. Hopefully building a pottery kiln!

There are also potential opportunities to learn about solar, electrical, vehicle maintenance, security cameras, Wi-Fi and communications. Food preservation, food preparation, seed saving, animal husbandry and butchering, preparing hides, crafting, clothes making, pottery, psychedelic therapy, woodworking, wood carving, using various tools and building methods.

This is a harsh and wild place. We are inside the Navajo Nation their rules must be respected. You must be willing to work with nature, we have dirt roads and sometimes extreme weather conditions, you must be willing to plan your activities around that. You must come with a fully functional and well maintained vehicle capable of traveling on slick and muddy roads along with making the hour and a half long trip to Gallup , Grants or Albuquerque to get supplies in town. You must be fully self-contained and capable of supporting all of your basic needs. Further accommodations can be discussed for accepted new members. We will often provide a shared meal on work days. We will provide water, internet, laundry and showers.

*Note to fellow queers- There is a not so radical fairie sanctuary nearby we are not affiliated with them in any way. The radical fairie community is a cult. The “community” here is very toxic, ableist and based on outdated and dangerous power structures, toxic positiveity, gaslighting, western spirituality. We do not associate with the outside community as we have found performative liberals and narcissistic white male lead queer cliques there is no actual community here.

NOTRE HISTOIRE

Notre kibboutz a été fondé en 1969 par Vincent et Albert Thibout.
Ils essaient de construire une vie de partage à l’exemple de celle des disciples de Jésus. Il s’appuie sur les enseignements universels révélés au peuple d’Israël par Dieu sur le Mont Sinaï, et dont la finalité est “Que ton frère vive avec toi”. Chacun de nous est donc invité à vivre cet idéal dans la joie et l’amitié.
Notre kibboutz est un lieu de vie où chaque membre s’édifie pour rendre possible un vivre ensemble fraternel. Ce choix de vie développe les rapports humains, l’amitié, le devoir, la générosité…
L’échange nous permet de nous questionner et d’évoluer.
Nous partageons les repas, l’éducation des enfants, le travail et les ressources matérielles. Cette vie nous épanouit par la recherche du bien-être de l’autre.

Dialogue allows us to question ourselves and evolve.
We share meals, children’s education, work and material resources. This life fulfills us through the search for the well-being of others.

The sacred land that allowed us to actualize and live symbiotically with is in the Sangre De Cristo range and the Wahatoya Mtns. at 8500 ft. Since establishing the non-profit Earth Mountain Education Farm in 2004 we have been developing  a 40 acre basecamp and surrounding 480 acre cooperative owned land through Permaculture and education. We have been hosting work-trade and residential internship folks for over fifteen years, yet would like to establish a long-term community. So far there are 3 families living completely off-grid on their own properties. Earth Mountain Education Farm is a central cottage industry for the community including, organic farming, nursery, urban farms, goat dairy, environmental education programs, camps, WWOOFing opportunities, and permaculture education. We envision 3 or more households who are passionate about a simple permaculture lifestyle, education, and community. At 8500 ft we are definitely living a high mtn. life in the forest remotely, with the closest town of Trinidad 1 hour away. Most structures are naturally built, cob, cordwood, and strawbale. It has been an amazing journey raising two boys, born on the land and homeschooled and know it is a special gift to raise children in this environment. We hope in coming together we can establish more community principles and strength for each other.

we are a family of four with two daughters aged 2 and 1 month. we are living on 4.5 acres, on which we have built a small cabin and various other small outbuildings. In accordance with our desires to form more of a community we are looking for families (or couples intent on children) to share in raising kids and building a life together. the exact structure will depend a bit on the joining members as they will be equal members of this community. our vision includes a community house/kitchen and shared common resources. we want to share the gardening, animal raising, land development, kid rearing, etc. we do enjoy our own space and intend to have our own house. the land is still quite raw but there are a number of building sites on the property.

Daviterra is located on a fenced-in 4.77 property located in the high desert area of Northeast Nevada, in Crescent Valley. It is easily accessible, quiet, very picturesque. It is off-grid, with 3 assigned plots for future residents, with an area for prospective campers, and plenty of space for growth. We have a well which needs to be restarted. The property is just a few miles from groceries, gas, elementary school, etc. Major city with restaurants, casinos, hotels, major stores, services, recreation, hospital, etc, is less than an hour’s drive.

We are seeking 3 families, or individuals, (ASAP) to become residents, willing and able to help complete our on-going projects and be part of our mission.

We’re a small group of friends in our twenties and thirties who have moved together to rural Washington. We are a queer community, looking for like-minded folks who would like to join us as we build permaculture systems on our property and engage in small animal husbandry. We are a relatively new community and we are in the beginning stage of understanding how we take care of each other and the land in the context of a slowly collapsing dystopia.

We share meals regularly. We are comfortable keeping and culling animals for our own consumption and you should be too. We can accommodate some dietary needs.
