I could build a great big bbq pit and grill some great meat for non-vegetarians on special occasions. Bet Corky would help me with all that cooking. Corky has exceptional cooking talents. That type atmosphere creates a terrific social. Ami and Corkey, you both must move to the compound area, please. I say area because I would like to buy about 5 acres up against compound land.I enjoy people but not all the time. I need a hidey-hole a little away from the main. Otherwise, I would get cranky. Also, can help others with woodworking, painting, caulking, landscaping - most anything . And my chainsaw will do well when we need to clear off some of the land.
When can be get started? |

Teaching is necessary especially if we are a community with our own school then we can insure the safety of the children against the hatred ect, & more importantly think of the care and attention each child would receive. Although sending their children to public school should be an option as well Quote:

I think this would be awesome. I used to visit friends that had a communal farm south of Memphis years ago. I loved the energy.
I agree with what many have said about boundaries, private space, setting up leadership. What I can contribute to the community: I'm a mechanic. I can do plumbing. I can prepare all our taxes. I cook and bake. I can do healing work and massage and Reiki. I can paint and do framing/building with guidance. I do not like to do yard work or gardening, so that would have to be someone else's gig. So when are we moving? |

I'd love to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. I like being immersed in a world that isn't planned.

I've actually thought of this myself. The "compound" would be in the mountains of Ruidoso, NM though lol And everyone would have their own space...house/cottage...with 1 large building for gatherings. Figured a couple of hundred acres in the mountains would do the trick.

The amish and menonite make it work. We could even set up windmills or if near water use it for our power supply. Then there is solar.
Looks like we have mutiple talented people in the community. Oh well never hurts to dream never know when it might become a reality.

Count us in!!!
Would you want to live on a BFP compound?
That would be awesome.... Ginger and I have talked about communal living. of course there would have to be "private" space for everyone, and some form of leadership but i think it should be very cool What skills can you contribute? I can cook, (executive chef experience, food inventory management, menus, sanitation certifications etc. nutrition) i can do yard work, i also have farm experience, especially with horses. (horse whisperer)i am also a skilled dog trainer. i can also sweep chimneys, do carpentry, drywall, masonry, etc... oh and provide a little eye candy working up a sweat in my A-shirt... heh Would you want to do community meals every night in the "Mess Hall"? i think the mess hall would be the best way to do at least one big meal a day, have food available to all and folks could have their own kitchens as well. Would people still need to pay something into the system like rent, even if it was only nominal? i think there should be a small fee like dues just to help with the upkeep as you would not want all that to come out of your pocket, but i think much of it could be traded out in work for the community: gardening, yard work, kp duty, carpentry and general maintenance. Do you think you'd get tired of living with family all year long? Never. we would be free to come and go as we please. it would be like a home base... What pro's and con's can you see to this idea? the only con that i can foresee is making sure that everyone has jobs, or some form of income in the area. True communal living requires a lot of work, cooperation, strong fair leadership and a buy-in from all. BUT i think it could definitely work... What input do you have? i think i could definitely bring some ideas on the layout and how to design a kitchen/messhall/dining facility. i was a food service professional for many years. Apoc and I can rock some Food and Beverage events and shit..... oh and i can definitely provide Entertainment...
