I’m in southern Oregon, where I have 80 acres of off-grid forest land that I am currently working on restoring to greater health and have dreams of creating a community and learning center on. I’m right outside the town of Ashland and pretty much equidistant to San Francisco and Portland.

I have two young kids half time and doing my best to guide them into the amazing human beings they are.

Between the kids, the rural property, and my aversion to bars, I don’t get out much and have recently found this site as s resource for information. Finding this particular forum seemed like a good place to cast my line. I’m happy to share more or chat. Good luck out here.

Hi Leaf,
I'm 49, SWF, in southern Oregon, with 4 grown children. I would be interested in meeting you, if nothing else, it's good to have friends. I also have 80 acres, but in the upper rogue. Feel free to PM me.

Stacy

I don't want this to sound too corny but I have to say what first drew my attention to your post were your kind eyes. And you know they say the eyes are the window to the soul
I just found this forum and it is like a breath of fresh air to see that there are individuals out there with similar interests and goals. I am a SWF 42 who is college educated and does well for herself. It has always been my dream to live a simpler lifestyle but I have never found anyone who shared this passion with me. Between kids (older teens), work and also having an aversion to the bar scene I have found it difficult to meet new people. I would love to chat more. PM me.

The cocreative journey is a wonderful thing! We are all in it together, however some of us find our intentions align beautifully. I currently live in Santa Fe and have implemented dryland permaculture strategies (some techniques indigenous to this area), on the land where I live and worked at UNM in the sustainability department as coordinator of permaculture project on site. after studying at a biodynamic ranch in carbondale CO I found myself enjoying the green pastures and have been looking into PNW living since. Paternal side of family lives out there and I visit annually. Anyway, Shasta is mystical and beautiful... I'm interested in community living and have an undergrad in community planning, MS in counseling psychology. Contact me if you feel inspired to do so.
Be blessed

Hello from the mid-Willamette Valley! I'd love to hear more about your progress and your vision for the 80 acres you're on. I just returned here from the Western Slope of Colorado where I was working at a 40-acre Retreat Center as the Wellness & Permaculture Director. I have been looking for land for several years to settle on in Oregon. My intention is similar to yours - to open a land-based educational and micro-business operation with the restoration of the land being front and center on the agenda. It would be great to chat with you if you have some time! Thanks, and good harvest to you. You can email me directly at AntigoneAllena@gmail.com

Just figured I’d “bump” this posting as it’s been a while and find myself in a similar place as when I first posted it. Still searching for that partner to create with.

Hi Leaf, what a great name for a nature man!
So many dreams and goals, seems impossible to meet someone on the same trek, especially making a natural connection on an unnatural medium, oh! The irony!
I have put myself on a one year goal to transition out of city life and start my sending half of life building a self sustainable community of music, art and nature thriving.
Living in LA due to the Pandemic (can't help where we we raised and have community, greatful for a harbor! Even so I do not want to live here much longer).
I've been studying off grid living, permaculture, agro food forests, animal husbandry etc for a few years, even took a year in Australia to volunteer and learn at such homesteads. Was just about to move to Spain when the Corona shut down the world. I'll be 50 this May, still work almost everyday (I do set construction as a Lead Scenic artist) I plan to open a restoration/art shop, again at the end of this year hopefully.
Hope this note finds you and yours well, Esther

Hey there Leaf,

I’m Lindsey, 37, mom to one sassy tween, she’s 12. We currently live in Tacoma but I have been looking to leave the city for quite some time. I’ve been a flight attendant for 16 years and a single mom for 9. Southern Oregon is so beautiful, your place sounds amazing. I’m not into the bar scene either but love to gather with friends often. I’ve got a real passion for community and often have a few extra kids at my house. I’m currently in a shamanic natural beekeeping apprenticeship this year and look forward to getting on some land soon and learning more about permaculture and rewilding. I’m interested in healing, wellness, music, authenticity, sovereignty. Would love to find a partner to share those things with. Feel free to reach out lindseyauckland@gmail.com

Hi Leaf,
I'm not looking for a partner, just pursuing forums.
Something about your post struck me, though, and I thought I would suggest the Ringing Cedars community as a place to look for your co-creator.
Best of luck to you and your bright future!

Hi Leaf,

I'm 47 and am in Portland. I'm looking to co-create a magical, conscious partnership with someone who wants to live outside of a city. I don't know how to message you directly so I'm trying this out!

A bit about me...

Bold, sweet, earthy, curious, soulful, monogamous, honest, fiery, playful, loving, actual tree-hugging human, seeking another deep and emotionally intelligent, introspective soul who is kind, playful, compassionate, honest, mindful, grounded and rad.

Politically homeless.

Sober by choice.

🦄
Brittany
