Have a look at our community. We're looking forward to exchange with global communities!(Pictures)

The photos below are from the 4th branch of our community. it was built from last August from a wild land. Now it turns into a very beautiful place with about 50 new independent houses, new fruit trees, flowers and new dinning hall and Performance Hall. This is all built by ourselves. Our community is called Home without marriage and family, and has been existed in Yunnan China for 3 years, which is get along quite well with local governments and neighbors. We also plant vegetables and manage pear trees and other fruit trees ourselves. We raise chickens and ducks too. So we do have few needs coming from the outside.It's a green and sustainable, self-sufficient community, and more important it's a community created by all members who have the same values and same dreams,that's we walk on the way of the Greatest Creator, we want to create a new life pattern for human being. And we believe it'll coming true in the close future.

Hi Jeanine Gurley, thank you a lot for your response. I'm really glad you're interested. The forum page is more focusing on Chanyuan Values and the page of Home without Marriage and Family is all about the community. Maybe this will help you to find the information more easily. Welcome to new oasis for life!

welcome to permies tong xin I'd love to learn more about how you fertilise your crops.
You have many people living in your communities. How much of your community's food do you think your land provides?

Hi Leila Rich, I'm glad to be here. We use the night soil of the community to fertilise crops. Also with grass and leaves from fruit trees and mountains to make fertilizer like leave mold, for example in the 3rd branch, we are almost around by mountains full of trees. And we buy some fertilizer in market using it as the basic steps for crops. We almost don't use pesticide and trying to decrease the chance of using it. So the vegetables are quite healthy and the climate of Yunnan is suitable for them.

There are totally about 180 people living in 3 branches. Each has about 45--70 people. All vegetables are planted by ourselves and we raise chickens or ducks too. There are about 130 eggs perday for 45 people now in the 3rd branch. So it's quite abundant. The bean food and some other material we buy it from the market. Because of the values we believe in, we seldom have meat except for holidays or celebrating festivals. The meat is bought from the market too.It's just 20mins' ride from the community to town. And for Chinese rice and flour are the main food materials, we buy it from markets and use it doing a lot of different food.

Hi guys, do you like our home? If yes, please pay attention to our website and I'd love to answer any questions about our home.It will be my pleasure to have that chance. Thank everybody!
