What is Peaceful Valley Village:
Peaceful Valley Village is a modern day commune in the works.
Our Long Term Vision:
We will build a farm village that is agriculturally, craft and arts based.
We will build community infrastructure and support members, allowing them to create their own craft and business. Our business model will work similar to how Amish craft and sale very high-quality furniture. Agriculture will be a top priority, with a major focus on permaculture, pasture raised meats and traditional fruit and veggie production. We will work together to get our products to market such as farmers market booths, art shows, auctions, craft fairs, etc.. This will also allow us to easily build self-sufficiency into the community while maintaining the ability to cover community expenses.
Our community will also offer classes, stays and retreats for the external community to enjoy, providing an opportunity for our members to provide their wisdom and skills to others.
We are currently looking for Founders.
We’re are not open to just anyone. We are looking for self starters, those who have started or operated a business or plans to operate one. We’re looking for doers not talkers… We have met many folks who talk a big talk but never show up when it’s time to get down to work,
Here are some skills or interest that could be helpful: Animal husbandry, farming, building, framing, plumbing, concrete work, social media management, videography, podcast, writing, photography. Are you into self sufficiency, being in control of your food and water and energy, are you crafty, spiritual, on a mission to be a better human and live a long and prosperous life leaving the world better then you found it? If so, we might all get along really well!
Peaceful Valley Village is a collective of likeminded people in search of rebuilding community and craft, while staying healthy and making the world around us a better place. Join us in our mission to be better and do better.
