Hippie Arbor

Buffalo Valley, Tennessee,

United States

Forming a new community in Tennesse around Putnam or Jackson County. Starting in April of 2009 the community will be based and have property bought near middle Tenn. We need members now to invest into a large track of land which will then be split up into acres for owership, depending on how much is invested split by how much you invest. This wil be a fair and honest ownership. We will lead a homestead life sharing-work-freedoms and helping all as equal family members. All will be welcome on a native american God hippie pagan total freedom lifestyle. All food will be grown, stored as well as animals. A simple way of living is the only requirment. Live how ever you want to live but enjoy it with others like minded. Work shops, schools and participating together will be our main focus. There will be elders to make most decisions as well as decisions made by all. Sharing living and loving as a family acieving great things together. We will strive to acieve to making money at farm markets the internet and the like but anyone may work out side of the community. There is nothing more basic than food love and a security to be safe. We all will work to support our fellow members to make this te reality. Please contact me by email to start the process of going together to pool resources to buy a farm. With the ecnomy failing we can easily buy a 100 to 300 acre farm maybe bigger. If "you" could buy 30 acres for $30-$45,000.00, 5-10 people could buy times that. All ideas will be welcome too. Nothing will be in stone until the property is bought in about spring of 2009. Please join our family and we all live in peace and harmony. So I urge our group to develop such skills, including some form of conflict resolution—ideally learned with a trainer. And learn these skills early on, when there's little or no conflict, for the same reason schools practice fire drills when there's no fire. Learning such skills at the outset can help reduce the potential destructiveness of poorly handled interpersonal conflict later on. We will need members for all skills including but not limited to: Doctors, Educators, Carpenters, Accountants, Musicians, Network Administrators, Etc. Etc. We will make it work! We will also develop a mission statement! Together! Email Now, so we can get started! We will have a meeting about the last of Nov/ 2008.
