Members of the Peaceful Community believe that the initiation of force is always immoral and that all human interaction should be voluntary. The purpose of the community is to establish a high trust, self sufficient, profitable village where people can live with others who share their values. The principles of regenerative, organic farming will be used to produce enough food for the members and for sale to others nearby. The primary operation of the farm will be a dairy.
The community must have a minimum of 50 members who will contribute to purchase the land, which will be divided into residential parcels and a land trust where the farm will operate. The farm will be run as an LLC. All Peaceful Community members will share the residential land as tenants in common and will be members of the LLC. All members will be beneficiaries of the land trust.
Members will use unanimous, consensus based governance on all matters concerning any disputes between the members.
WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, witnesses to the lesson of history — that no form of political governance may be relied upon to secure the individual rights of life, liberty, or property — now therefore establish and provide certain fundamental precepts measuring our conduct toward one another, and toward others:
FIRST, each individual is the exclusive proprietor of his or her own existence and all products thereof, holding no obligations except those created by consent;
SECOND, no individual or association of individuals, however constituted, has the right to initiate force against any other individual;
THIRD, each individual has the inalienable right of self-defense against the initiation of force;
FOURTH, explicit voluntary association is the only means by which binding obligations may be created, and claims based on association or relationships to which any party did not consent are empty and invalid;
FIFTH, rights are neither collective nor additive in character, and no group can possess rights in excess of those belonging to its individual members.
Accordingly, we hereby declare our commitment to peace, individual sovereignty, and independence, as part of the Peaceful Community.
