Struggling Communities Wanting Fresh Blood and Support?

I am looking for communities that are struggling to regain their mojo, their connection but have the infrastructure and land ready for a # of folks to come their way. especially looking for young families. My young family has a lot to bring to the table around community, permaculture and such and instead of starting our own, we thought it would be great to help an existing community. one that is immersed in nature, that has some level of values alignment (or desire) there in.

Hi @apkalow, letting you know that I just added the tags “seeking-community” and “permaculture” to your topic. We’re trying to keep this forum pretty organized, so if you can add relevant tags to your future topics, we’d appreciate that participation. You can learn more about adding tags in our Getting Started document! I also hope this helps the communities you are looking for to find you.

Best of luck on this community search, and on your upcoming event with us :smile:

Hi Aaron, I am also looking for a similar community with land and children, possibly even a shared self-directed schooling situation or an alternative school nearby. How has the search been so far for you?

Hi,

I am part of a group (of mostly families with young children) working on starting an ecovillage. I know you said you are looking for an existing community but I’d love to talk with you more if you are interested. I’m very interested in permaculture but I have a lot to learn! I’m starting a course this June.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about regenerative agriculture, has experience farming and building farm infrastructure projects, is highly systematic, and is not intimidated by learning new things. We need an independent worker who can work closely with the farm owners to consult about the strategic vision for the farm then implement that vision with a large degree of independence.

Weekly tasks will include planting, harvesting, collecting eggs, and working on a number of farm infrastructure projects such as installing new garden beds, installing new greenhouses, etc.

Compensation

Monthly budget, site for a home and office, free village shopping plus commission

The Elders live onsite to manage our Village. The village members, shopkeepers, and volunteers will not as our village in the Clubb, MO location is not residential yet for a large number of people. So this will be a quiet private village open during weekdays to Shop Keepers and open to the public every weekend for our events.
