What we do

Mountain Meadows on Crooked Creek is a Green community. We are Green, Organic, and Sustainably oriented and recognize the overarching value of positive human interaction in a welcoming and conscious environment. Enjoy the 5+ acre common area with organic vegetable areas by Crooked Creek and an organic orchard. Our beautiful Pavilion with local rock and wood (70% of the wood is harvested from our community) along with the Patio and grounds creates a warm surround for caring and kind interface, poetry readings, spiritual musings, yoga classes, drumming, musical events, potlucks, cornhole, etc. Boulders and a game area with fire pit are ready and 200 xeriscape plants are being nurtured. Most importantly, many of us will enjoy spontaneous chat and a cup of java or tea around the fireplace, fire pit, or grill. The Pavilion also offers a small heated kitchen, bathroom, and outdoor and indoor games in a rich stone and wood Arts Crafts setting near the entry. Come take a look at our community: 3 of our 30 lots are still available and 2 of them have long-distance views. 4 homes are being built the beginning of ’25.

Permaculture Community Opportunity

Welcome to Havn Hill and Discovery Culture, a serene and sustainable retreat center nestled in the rainshadow of Washington’s Olympic Peninsula. This organic, ecological, permaculture-based retreat center and farm is a sanctuary for individuals looking to reconnect with the rhythms of the natural world. We are a tiny house permaculture homestead and community. Recently we have become a retreat center hosting the public. We are blessed to steward an amazing 10 acres with second growth forest and 2 year round streams. We do forestry, orcharding, poultry raising, gardening, superfood production, maple tapping, nursery work, herb growing, and park like landscaping. We host community here in various forms. We are strong entrepreneurs manifesting ways to generate abundance. We are very connected to our incredible regional community and often host events like apple pressing and cider production. Lots of projects are underway and planned for the future. The most recent one came to a conclusion last autumn. It is a stunning eco-conscious community bath house, complete with a wood fired sauna and ozone hot tub. Next up on our agenda is a tropical greenhouse and wood yurt temple and yoga deck. Nestled within the lush landscapes of Washington State, our organic, ecological retreat center stands as a testament to the harmonious coexistence between nature and human endeavor. Embracing the principles of permaculture, our haven is a sanctuary where sustainability, mindfulness, and ecological stewardship converge to create a unique and rejuvenating experience. We have a 2 story large tiny house for sale on our property. It is complete with a large cedar deck boasting a great view. It is hooked up to our septic system, electrical, internet, and well water. It was built 1.5 years ago on site using German building science and materials, metal framing, a tiny house chassis, and local woods. 3 large skylights in the ceiling are amazing. The bath room is spacious and boasts
