Yearning to live in a close-knit community?
Seeking a more spiritually focused life?
Dreaming of living more simply and sustainably?
Come visit!
We are currently an intentional community of ten households and several others interested in membership, living close to the land on 135 acres of mixed woodland and pasture. We range in age from 4 to 91, with 17 adults, 6 children, and a number of young adult children who come and go. We strive to live spirit-focused lives that are simple, sustainable, and joyful, benefitting from and enjoying our close connections with each other and the land. We don't all need to identify explicitly as Quaker. We welcome diversity of all sorts.
