We’re a small group of friends in our twenties and thirties who have moved together to rural Washington. We are a queer community, looking for like-minded folks who would like to join us as we build permaculture systems on our property and engage in small animal husbandry. We are a relatively new community and we are in the beginning stage of understanding how we take care of each other and the land in the context of a slowly collapsing dystopia.
We share meals regularly. We are comfortable keeping and culling animals for our own consumption and you should be too. We can accommodate some dietary needs.
We are building an accepting, supportive community of friends who improve their individual and collective resilience in the face of uncertainty by building sustainable permaculture food systems, raising small livestock, supporting each other’s economic endeavors, and creating strong local community.

We are ultimately looking for the right person or persons who want to make a serious long-term commitment to this community. They will demonstrate their commitment by contributing to the community financially and energetically over a three year time-span.
Folks interested in living here start out as month-to-month tenants with a security deposit on file. At the end of their first year, a one or two year lease will be offered if folks want to stay longer/they fit well with the rest of the community. After three years of renting, folks interested in becoming equity members in the community will have their contributed time and the amount of rent they’ve previously paid converted into an equity ownership share of the property. Equity ownership may include a future community purchase of a larger piece of property with additional housing options.
Send us an email explaining who you are and what you’re looking for.
