Greening Life Community

Greening Life was established in 1972 on a 135-acre farm in south central Pennsylvania. We are a planned, intentional community. Most past and present members built their own homes, roads, and water system. We follow organic-farming practices on our 50 acres of tillable land and in our two-acre garden, which produces some of our vegetables. Our small orchard is providing us with fruit and we have about two dozen chickens that belong to the members of the community. Individual households have a small number of farm animals such as pigs, turkeys, goats, cows and chickens.

The effort to create a balance of cooperative living, with time for individual and family has been a rewarding struggle. Growth in spirit, both individual and community, is an important part of our life together. We respect all persons and value their opinions as a voice to help guide us. We are open to share our spirit and resources with other individuals and groups. It is unusual for us to have member and home openings since the community is stable. We do not have any homes open for purchase at this time.
