We'd be happy to come to Montana...
This is the post we placed in the communities forum on this site:
We are seeking YOU ....folks on the land already...to join you ....Your connection to creation, acknowledgement of the abundance of Earth, desire for healing and creating a beautiful place for all creatures and your family, growing food trees, berry bushes, foraging, living OFF GRID
We are seeking an immediate interest in connecting with others in an intuitive and expansive way.
We are:
Stacy and Eric off grid, positive, grounded, kinda folks, currently traveling after being on the southern Oregon coast visiting family for a few weeks, decided to stay, have done a few workaways...and now would like to honor folks with our experience and desire for community...
Stacy is 53 years old, a former elementary school teacher, former small business owner, former farm hand at a friend's Hudson Valley, NY veggie, flower, herb, and pumpkin farm. She has lived on and work traded for a season at another friend's medicinal herb farm. She is an avid forager and enjoys making medicines and teas. ... feels deeply connected to plant beings, self taught, although inspired by Susun Weed, Robin Wall Kimmerer, and herbalist friends from her years in the Hudson Valley
oh, most importantly, she is a Mom of an awesome daughter, who currently lives in Oregon.
Eric is 58, a sugar maker, outdoor adventuring kind of man, he can build anything that folks get excited about and is excellent with a chainsaw!
Our intention is to live off grid, as natural spiritual beings, within community.
We have shared the land back in VT with two young couples... that Eric has stewarded for 27 years... we together for two and a half years on nearly 100 acres on a small mountain in Vermont in a cabin Eric built himself 7 years ago. 1/4 mile hike in from the dirt road, minimal
solar power, tiny awesome space.
We are currently just south of Roseburg, OR and ready to jump in and help with your projects and bring our small camper, (22ft) towed by our F550 and riding along in our F250.
