closely in community, on our 24 acres organic permaculture farm. We 
integrate the social aspects of sustainability into daily life: how to 
live together with honesty, love and peace, and share power and 
leadership.  We do not have one central leader, but instead share the 
cost of the land and the leadership equally.This is a great time to tour 
the landand ask questions about community.
