(2015) In a nutshell; we have networked with other communities in the area, and we working on a self sustainable community of our own within the larger community. We ourselves are just a small farm of friends and family, though we are open to newcomers. We have a few other communities in our area in which we try to maintain a network with; some more then others. So we are a community of communities within the cedar county area.
(2022 Update) I was calling it quits, but people keep calling me; so I am looking for new “leaders” who might have business partnership potential. My co-founder and former business partner didn’t work out, nor the other community members. I am trying to keep the faith, but it’s not easy most days. At the moment, I am just raising goats and looking for assistance. IF a sustainable community is in the cards for the future, I will be open to it; but I don’t have much hope. That other community I bought into in 2012, too was a bust. So there is buy in options there, if anyone is interested in starting a community there, let me know; it is three miles from my main property. We can start buying out the other owners. Meanwhile, I’ll just be here with my goats.
