I’m seeking a craftsperson who would like to carry on my ecological simple shoemaking business. I’m a member of Sirius Community in Shutesbury MA and live nearby. In my studio there’s loads of beautiful leather, ecological soling, lasts to make shoes over, all sorts of findings (thread, snaps, buckles etc), machinery – and I’ll offer a several-month apprenticeship. I have recently developed a technique for making custom footwear that could provide a foundation for a successful business!  website: https://simpleshoemaking.eco/ For inquiries please email Sharon Raymond at si**************@***il.com

The Sahale Learning Center, part of the Goodenough Community, on the Puget Sound in Washington state, is hosting it’s next Sahale Care Weekend, September 23 – 27. Our first Sahale Care Weekend after the summer guest season will focus on taking down the big event! We’ll need lots of hands! Depending on how many people we’ve got and how it goes, there will be plenty of other projects and land tending as we start to wind down for the year. We’ll also make time to connect with each other, have fun, and enjoy the land. This will be a great opportunity for new people to get to know the community and experience Sahale. Come for as much or as little of the time as you’re able. Arrive as early as Wed. Meals and work will begin Thursday morning.

“Hi everyone! I’m looking to join a conscious, sex-positive community or co-living space where I can learn, grow, and live alongside open-minded people. My background is rooted in Judeo-Christian culture, but my personal journey has taught me that true spirituality isn’t defined by rigid religious labels like Judaism or Christianity. To me, the ultimate truth and divinity lie simply in love—loving one another, practicing authentic connection, and fostering deep empathy. I view God as pure, unconditional love. I deeply value consent, clear communication, respect for boundaries, and emotional maturity. Whether it’s short-term stays, volunteering, or shared housing, I’m eager to contribute positive energy, openness, and a willingness to learn from the community. Looking forward to connecting!”
