Living Together in Devotion and Reciprocity
We are a village-hearted group of co-creators, called together by a shared vision to live in deep relationship with land, our young, culture and each other. We are healers, builders, growers, creators and have come to know each other as kin.
We have all spent decades living in and on intentional communities. Together we have a wealth of experience as students and teachers in a variety of homesteading practices, natural parenting, animal husbandry, natural building, Zenthai Shiatsu Therapies, Syntropics & Permaculture, earth care, herbal and nutritional medicine and many realms of creative practice including music, pottery, weaving, sacred women’s & family business and much more.
We met and came together to do the work of actively practising co-raising our little ones and living village life for several days every month. Coming together from our home communities, we brought our commitment to each other to try and find a better way, beyond nuclear families into something richer and more supportive. Something that requires as much commitment as a marriage, recognising that all co-relating takes work, patience, forgiveness and a strong sense of self within the collective.
We have seen these qualities manifest in and with each other, we have beheld with trust the love and care with our own little ones as they are tended by these aunties and uncles. Our lives have unfolded in perfect ways for us to learn what works and what doesn't work as we practice family and community. We will never stop learning, laughing and we commit to striving together.
