Mission: family of friends living simply and close to nature

From www.ic.org/directory/dandelion/:


For 2018 Dandelion is accepting only female applicants and moms of female child(ren)

We make decisions based on consensus and we share living space, meals, income, expenses, and labor. We value feminism, permaculture, cooperation, open communication, simplicity, honesty, nonviolence, and the willingness to resolve conflict.

We are located on approximately nine acres of land in rural northeast Missouri positioned within a network of other intentional communities. We have an annual garden, a high-tunnel hoop house, and a young orchard of fruit, nut, and timber trees, all which we garden organically.

We have many systems in place, and we aim to keep our lifestyle simple, yet fulfilling. It means a lot to us to have control over our own time.

Dandelion is a sub-community of Red Earth Farms. (see redearthfarms.org) Our goal is to become a family-style group of 5-8 adults, and we are open to children as well. More living space will need to be constructed as our population increases. Currently it is myself and my daughter half-time living here.

We are looking for self-motivated individuals to join and help grow this egalitarian, family-style sub-community. People who value simple living, personal growth, living in alignment with the universe, living closely with the earth, not spending a whole lot of money, regenerative/sustainable living, non-violent and direct, honest and open communication. Must be kid friendly. Prior community experience extremely helpful. Enjoy growing, preparing and eating healthy, delicious food a plus. Need to be self-motivated.

This is a somewhat rustic setting (no running water/hot water on demand/indoor shower, no refrigerator, no washer/dryer). We have telephone and internet, and a small off-grid electical system. We use hand tools and do all our cooking and heating with the sun and with wood gathered mainly from our property.

We want others to bring their skills and creative energy to come help Dandelion blossom into an active, thriving sub-community.
