A forming and co-created spiritually-oriented intentional community and homestead nestled in the beautiful woods of Northern Michigan. We are focused on self-awareness, free and open spiritual/consciousness development, sustainable living, self sufficiency, growing organic food, building small energy efficient homes/dwellings, peace, and freedom in all things. We are looking to build a community of like minded souls that share in our vision of creating a harmonious and sustainable way of life that is close to nature and focused on living from the heart/soul. Seeking kind, compassionate, caring, and emotionally mature souls who are good at non violent communication, resolving conflict peacefully, and working together.
The community property is well on its way to sustainability already with a fruit orchard with over 18 apple trees and a variety of plum and pear trees. The property also has 2 very large organic gardens covering around 3 acres in total combined size filled with organic healthy vegetables for community self sufficiency, farm market selling, and food preserving (canning). We are also getting 30-40 chickens for egg production within the next month. Also considering a couple cows or goats for milk.
We currently have 3 houses on the homestead property that are available to new community members for rent or work trade or a combination of both! The main community house has potentially 6 bedrooms available as well. We have plans to build multiple small/tiny homes and cabins in the beautiful woods here for members that are energy efficient and off grid with renewable clean energy/electricity and rainwater harvesting. We are working on a community income farm/homestead that will both support the community financially as well as sustainability wise. We strongly believe in building a safe and self sufficient environment for our members to thrive in even in these uncertain times. We practice non-violent communication and respect everyone’s right to their beliefs and opinions. We believe that we are souls having a temporary human experience and we choose the path of service to others, living from the heart/soul in love and kindness to all.
We will be updating this section very soon with more information about our new community as it forms! Consider being a part of our community forming process, send us a message for more information!
We are a new forming spiritually aware community focused on the expansion of consciousness, inner growth/awakening, self sustainability, organic gardening/homesteading, living closer to nature, peace, freedom, and living from the heart/soul in our everyday lives! We practice non-violent communication and believe that we can come together in community to thrive instead of just survive. We are all ONE. Treating each other with respect, love, and compassion is in our true soul nature. Looking forward to updating our mission statement as we find the right souls to co-create our community safe haven and thriving organic homestead together. ONE also symbolizes our focus to create a new earth of love, compassion, and abundance for all. Our New Earth. ONE.
