I have not the slightest clue about getting in touch with staff about making changes to my account -- apparently such settings are unavailable. Please, send a PM. I only see Paul as the forum admin and no one else. This is too much to get a simple thing done.

Please, also, a timely response would be nice or else I will have to go to plan B.

The camper needs some TLC and work. I have a plan for how to take care of it, just need the space to do so, as I'm parked temporarily on public land.

I'd really like to keep it local, within a 10-30 mile radius, not too far out from Elkins, WV.

Respond in the thread below linking to a relevant post or with details about what you have to offer.

If you'd like a work exchange, we can talk as well. I need help not only parking the camper but also towing it out from where it is. It's a flat run, so not too bad.

Hi Caleb,

I posted a thread seeking something very similar:

I'll shoot you an email too.

There have been many wonderful people interested in my 200 acre farm, and hopefully it will become an even more sustainable place very soon. New people will bring great things to this farm, and all will thrive. I have been blessed to start a lot of great Permies connections, and plan to set up the ability for people to come visit us and stay in the near future!! A guy from Ohio and a couple from Illinois with a toddler are coming in the next two weeks to stay--the house has two bedrooms (3 soon.) Hopefully, we shall have more room soon, the other (vacant) house will be fixed up in better shape... It will be great to have you come out after a little while, when they are settled down a bit. I went to the Intentional Communities in the Louisa, VA area, and they are wonderful places--you should check them out. Such great people, and that is kind of what we are trying to do here. We should keep in touch! My 200 acres is getting an infusion of intellect and ability, and we will be we/lcoming visitors and friends as they come this way.... hope to see you as you journey!!!

Thanks for the reply, Krystina.

My thread was pending when you reached out so this should be the one I was referencing:

I hope you enjoy your time with that family!

Have you considered trying GoFundMe? It wouldn't restrict you with deadlines.

Here is a part of that thread, which isn't viewable for some reason:

I want to find family-oriented communities without open door policies who want co-owners or people to share their land in a rent-to-own type of format. I want to find partners here.

Link your thread in the reply, if you have one, or just give me a heads up that you sent me a PM with more details about your interests and what you have going on with your growing or established community.

I envision and would love to be in an environment that values:

-Sustainable land development, ideally in a lush setting with water rights and plenty of trees for recreation
-Minimal electricity and low-level electromagnetic activity i.e. Wi-Fi and cell phone for work
-Use of basic tools and infrastructure for simplistic, primitive building
-Organic, eco-friendly, non-toxic and natural living/farming
-Homeschooling/unschooling, non-violence, conscious/attachment parenting (NO corporal punishment)
-Off-grid living, self-sufficiency, sovereignty, social activism and ethical microbusinesses
-Animal husbandry i.e. cows, goats, chickens, rabbits are all great!
-Tiny houses i.e. cob, gypsy wagons, cabins, yurts, bell tents, wofatis, houses on wheels, weather/disaster/attack proofing
-Prepping and self-defense strategies
-Canning, dehydrating, herbal medicine and holistic/energetic healing

That's not an exhaustive list so please don't feel you have to meet all of these criteria or that you wouldn't be a match if you are working on something else I didn't specify.

I hope this is the type of thing you're looking for.
