Seeking help in Starting up an Intentional Community In Western NC

I’m wondering how to find folks interested in helping Co-Found an Intentional Community. I have been reaching out now for a number of years without any permanent members yet. I have had visitors and some interest.

One of the hurdles is not having any members to start with. Having hosted dozens of Woofers and Interns over the years, I have some experience working with lots of folks, and many of the issues that can arise.

A lot of the groundwork for a community is in place: Hydro/solar off-grid power system, decent roads, temporary housing, a fishpond, well-established garden, etc. They say, build it, and they will come, however, this hasn’t been my experience. Perhaps someone has ideas for getting things rolling. I’m looking to get the land in good hands for the future. Paul
