beyond community

Outline   Community Values
 

Vision:

A community of scholars and artists working to sustain themselves responsibly (without slaves).

Goals:                     
                                   Immediate (to 3 years):

1) To buy a small piece of land in order to cement the core group into a cohesive entity.

2) To prepare and plant biointensive garden beds.

3) To recruit a core group of roughly 10 community members by September 2008.

4) To build simple, inexpensive, but beautiful buildings within first 2 years after we move to the land and not obsess about "my house" ever again.

5) To decide and implement a legal structure.

6) To decide and implement written agreements concerning forms of decision- making, healthy communication skills, methods for conflict resolution, ways of keeping group members accountable, and ways for admitting new members.

Medium range   (3-5 years)

 

1) To be 100% food self-sufficient.

2) To provide for all our needs locally without having to buy anything from the global economy

Long range                                 

1) To grow to an ecologically and psychologically appropriate size and then to bud off other communities..

2) To engage in creative activities, create a radically different culture, have fun, be healthy, do outreach, feel connected to each other and the world, and govern ourselves.
