About the Community

What we do

It’s time to form our tribe! We are Daniel & Patti AngelsAgrarian and have been developing our homestead for our food and energy self-reliance since 1990. (See the photos we have provided below.) We can freeze and preserve our produce and have a root cellar where we store root crops for our winter use. We are serious about this lifestyle; therefore, we want to hear from people who have similar experience and skills and are physically able and mentally willing to merge their efforts with our own. This would make this lifestyle workable for all. Our homestead is located on a dead-end road and is peaceful and quiet, with a year-round stream running through it. In this area, there have been numerous wildlife sightings in the forested land available for you to explore and enjoy. A gravel road is maintained by the County, which provides easy access. However, we do not have any housing to offer, so people will need to provide their own self-contained Tiny Houses or RVs that they can live in comfortably. The sites for these are currently under development, but will be offered for free to those who are willing to establish themselves on them. For pure water, a sand well can be driven that will have a manual hand pump. Ideally, people would need to be able to produce their own power and be equipped with a composting toilet or rent a Port-a-Potty. Employment can be found in Spokane, which is 21 miles south of us. A WiFi connection may be available to you via our Starlink Internet connection and an access point that boosts the signal, but we have no way of knowing how this will work for each member. We also have a couple of sponsored positions to offer that might be interesting to the reader. One is for a jack-of-all-trades handyman. We could offer this person a newish travel trailer we have set on our land to dwell in, or you could bring your own. The handyman could gain income from managing, maintaining, and providing security for all community members. The other position is for a female housekeeper who has vegetarian cooking, cleaning, and organizing experience and has a New Age spirituality background. A quiet, meditative, clean, tidy, cooperative type of person would be a perfect match in our home. What inspired us to live as we do and has us reaching out in this way to develop this community has been the result of what the Hopi Elders advised at http://www.communityworks.info/hopi.htm. They offer important direction to humanity as we enter an era of crucial and disruptive changes that are unfolding for us all today. The Hopi ask and say, as we do also… “What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in the right relation? Where are you living? Where is your water?” Additionally, “Know your garden,” and realize that “The time for the lone wolf is over.” All the Hopi are saying is that it would be prudent for people to think about where one wants to be and with whom before one is overtaken by the social, economic, environmental, and other shifts currently unfolding around the world. “We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.” The people we are looking for to share our lives will need to be seriously wanting to live as we do and learn how to successfully cooperate toward actualizing these goals with one another. Thank you for your responses that consider all of the above.
