Hi,
We've posted here before but haven't quite found our "tribe" yet so are giving it another go :-)
We're located in Northeast Missouri, a 12.7 acre homestead within a network of intentional communities https://www.ic.org/directory/dandelion/
Right now it's just me and my kiddo but we've hosted a lot of other folks over the years just no one has been a fit to really stay longer term for all kinds of various reasons. Longer term we are definitely looking for like-minded friends who want to make their home here with us and who don't mind rustic life. It's beautiful and peaceful but also there are the chiggers and ticks and poison ivy and the hot humid and the cold cold and no oceans or mountains, but a good quality mid-western life. We are LGBTQ+ friendly, and honestly prefer people who have been socialized female because we have encountered a lot of sexism in the past from those socialized male but also would be open to a partnered male or really anyone who feels like they would be interested to meet us and visit and potentially make a home here with us.
Please reach out if you feel so inspired, we don't charge money to stay here but you may need to figure out your own finances to a certain extent though we have some housing available and can offer to pay for food in exchange for help in the gardens and orchard and whatnot. Really mostly looking for good platonic friends who are into sustainable/regenerative/rustic life, because 12 acres is too much for just us :-)

Are there places there for one coming to build their home structure, and plant a number of things to have growing that would be good for subsistence and needs? This would generally be a good approach.
