What we do

Morganic Permaculture FarmUnity (MPFU) is a working farm that sells pastured non-gmo eggs, pastured meats and organic vegetables to a local co-op and via regional farmers markets–as well as at the farm. The community is modeled somewhat after D-Acres Permaculture Community Farm in New Hampshire and Essex Farm in upstate New York. MPFU has this as a starting point: 30 acres, an already established and growing low-tech ethical farm enterprise, a desire for like-minded farming individuals to inhabit at least the single house on the property–a 3000-sq ft five-bedroom Cape Cod home with shared kitchen, bathroom and common areas, and a desire to provide the livelihood and sustenance of the members via farming and related industries. Members are expected to be farmers and enjoy farming. :)

Our Mission

To provide FT employment (likely starting out as work exchange for housing and food) and year round sustenance to its members are to serve the regional foodshed with product, services and education.

How to join

Contact me via email. Plan a visit. Conduct one or more interviews. Contemplate whether or not this is appropriate for the individual(s) and/or the community. Make a decision–and live with it. :) Though still evolving there shall likely be some kind of introductory period built into the initial 3 to 9 months of their residence.

Basic expectations or agreements for members

They should call or email and state their interest, reasons and preferred dates–as well as “what they would like to get out of the visit” so that it can be as relevant and informative as possible.

Primary decision-making authority

  • Single Leader or Founding Couple

One person or partnership has ultimate authority.

Decision-making process

  • Leadership Decides

A single person, couple, or small group makes most major decisions.

Governance structure

  • Founder/Leader-led

Primary authority rests with the community’s founder(s) or designated leader(s).

Conflict resolution approach

These selections are based on “where I am at right now.” I am a single owner of a 3000 sq ft home. What I would like to develop over the near future is a potential transition of the individual ownership of the land to an educational NPO and the house be either owned by the NPO or somehow moved to a shared ownership or shared governing model (likely Consensus). This is being and will continue to be researched and deliberated upon.

Economic model

  • Complete Income-Sharing

All member income goes into common pool for community use.

Economic scenarios for this community

  • There is a labor obligation

Additional economic information

Labor: Yes (40 hrs/week)
The current idea (though evolving for sure) is that the house and its expenses symbolically move under the farm and so the work and profit of the farm would pay for the house and related expenses, pay employees/members (profit permitting) and have some left over to save and some to reinvest in the farm.

Healing Love Healing Money: Trust As The Foundation For A New Culture

Money, love and power are among the hardest things any community works with, and many of us carry the same fears into both: not having enough, losing what we have, and the sense that if someone else gets money or love, we won’t. Healing Love, Healing Money: Trust as the Foundation for a New Culture is taught by two intentional communities. Karen McAllister and Duncan Cryle are from Clear Sky Meditation and Retreat Center, a Buddhist-lineage community in the BC Rockies. Monika Alleweldt and Benjamin von Mendelssohn from Tamera Healing Biotope, a community of about 160 people in southern Portugal that has spent decades studying love, trust and relationship. Clear Sky has spent years working on its relationship with money, and our two communities found surprising parallels in the fears beneath both. Over four sessions we explore the roots of fear around money and belonging, love, possession and power, trust as infrastructure (community as a container for healing), and ethical livelihood. We use short meditations, body-based practices, reflection and small-group conversation. You do not need to be in a romantic relationship or live in community. When: October 27, Nov 3, 10, 17. All four sessions: 12–2pm Vancouver, 1–3pm Alberta, 7–9pm UK and Portugal, 8–10pm Central Europe. Note: US and some Canadian provinces change clocks on November 1, so the US west coast is 12–2pm on October 27, then 11am–1pm for the remaining sessions, and Eastern is 3–5pm on October 27, then 2–4pm for the rest. Cost: sliding scale Details and registration: https://www.clearskycenter.org/event/healing-love-healing-money-online/

Do you feel called to help co-create a small, newly forming eco-spiritual community?

Old structures are crumbling. New ways of living are calling. We are answering that call. Wild Grace is an eco-spiritual community located in the Sierra foothills 30 minutes from Grass Valley, California. We recently completed new homes for those who feel called to our vision. Currently there are four of us living on this sacred 80 acres of land although we are a hub for an expanded neighborhood community. Many join us weekly for potlucks, expressive dance, Qi Gong, monthly musical gatherings, and seasonal celebrations in our temple, as well as tending to our orchard. We are excited to welcome others to join us on the land who are dedicating their lives to spiritual growth and ready to live in a more focused and intimate heart-centered lifestyle. Might that be you or someone you know? The fundamentals are simple. Spirit. We listen personally and collectively together most mornings, usually starting with a musical offering, a prayer, or a short reading, followed by about 40 minutes of what we call “sacred silence.” Heart Circles. About once a week we gather to share and listen. We are informed by authentic and compassionate communication practices. Nature. The land itself—an 80-acre oasis of field and forest perched above the wild and scenic South Yuba River—calls for our stewardship in the gardens, orchard, greenhouses, and general care. In turn, nature feeds us abundantly, both literally and spiritually. Interbeing. We join with others to share inspiration and connection as we host monthly gatherings of song, story and prayer that draws from the larger community in addition to other events we share with our closer neighbors. As we attend to these fundamentals, Grace flows to and through us—often in “Wild” or unexpected ways. Grace catalyzes through us, but is not something we possess. Because we all are connected, we feel that Grace actively transforms n
