Life at Human Scale A co-housing commons for a farm-y life of balance and presence; or, how to try to live well before we die. The Vision A small co-housing ecovillage of farmers, artisans, and just-trying-to-be-and-do good’ers who like it simple but still appreciate the mess of life, to live in a balanced, present, walkable, human-scale way, perfused by town and country. Bubbles exist, whether by intention or not; while we’re still alive, let’s make a beautiful one. The Nutshell Think : farm + family camp + artisan neighborhood + buddhist’ic monastery Location : Northeastern New York, Lake Champlain, Tiny Town Rural Size : 400 Acres, $2.5M, ~7 units. ~$400k+ negotiable for buy-in, construction & start-up Folks : 7 households, all ages, non-dogmatic, startled by the fact of being. Living : Walkable, Phone-free-friendly, Natural and Simple Farm & Kitchen : Self-providing + more, Vegetarian’ish, Ayurvedically-informed Status : Pre-purchase & pre-plan approval. We’re looking for folks!
To be alive for our own life before we’re dead, and to help each other do this. On a farm, of course. :)
