From www.ic.org/directory/hollows-end-neighborhood-cooperative/:
Hollow's End is a cooperatively minded group house share in the Monadnock region of SW New Hampshire. We enjoy a balance of female/male people and are currently looking for men to join us. A couple might be possible too. Someone who already knows and loves the area, as well as who is open to the right long term (3+ years) situation is preferred but we are most interested in the right fit for all of us.If you are interested and experienced in farming and/or permaculture, that would be a plus as there are dreams and space to create..land with decent soils for a committed knowledgeable person and a fair bit of water.
Life is busy so we try to live by our dreams and goals but be realistic and flexible too.
We do put a major emphasis on health- both in body and spirit- and love the country rural life and place we live.
We are a mix of ages, the youngest being 30, the oldest 65. Currently 3F, 1M.
Teaching science, property management, artistry, retired and volunteering are some of the things that describe us. Also biking, hiking, flowers, crafts, making yogurt, helping our elders and friends, mushrooming, traveling, dancing... We strive to live an ecologically regenerative lifestyle.
Join current AM stretching and meditation practice or not... Shared activities are likely to arise here and there as we get to know each other, have time and interest.
We do share a weekly meal together - our food preferences are all over the map but healthy for each of us. We also meet monthly to review what's working well for everyone and what might need to be discussed.
We live in a lovely peaceful hollow where the skies are dark at night and coyotes & owls abound. We share an old but updated house with 6 bedrooms, one being for guests. We are fairly quiet and enjoy the serenity here.
Our closest large town is Keene and the whole Monadnock region is lovely with woods, rolling hills, lakes, streams and of course the mountain itself.
We aim to make home life more fun, efficient and economic while enjoying each others camaraderie. We have a warm interactive habitat here- a Home as opposed to a place to live. For the best fit, you should be fairly neat and clean, positive and open minded, a good communicator, and willing to compromise. Perhaps you are also a bit wise but still growing & learning :).
We drink very little if any and do not use recreations drugs. We value a positive outlook on life, little drama and open communication.
Rooms range from $450-$550 and include gas and electricity. We pitch in for firewood, telephone, wifi and chores. Well behaved pets are negotiable.
We'd love to hear from you.... please share a little about yourself and what appeals most to you about this situation and what group living experience you have.
