Hi Mathew, where are you at and where are you hoping to locate?  I'm in Southern Oregon and was just searching on here looking for the like minds that might be located near me for the exact kind of things you are talking about.  

Hi Brandon, I was hoping for a similar situation as you and we looked in Southern Oregon thoroughly for an opportunity, to work alongside others building up, most importantly, food sovereignty.  We didn't find an existing land project of the type, of the mix we were looking for, so we decided to go solo and bought a smaller acreage in Selma in order to get started.  The hope now is to find others that want to move nearby and collaborate.  The land in this county has the lowest property tax in the NW, and for the great deals on beautiful real estate here, it makes it a really good area for those starting out in homesteading.  It would be so nice if I knew other dedicated permaculturists in the hood.  If you like this area and want me to keep an eye out for property, or a rental situation please let me know.      

As of this moment in Time the Oregon town of Tiller is still sitting in need of being brought back to life.  I believe it has changed hands more than once since the original posting 8 years ago.  

Acorn Squash maybe easily substituted?

I believe this was one of the included bonuses for those of us that took part in the Passive Solar Greenhouse kickstarter.  Might I find it in "my stuff" when the final version is out?
