Five years ago my wife and I moved from a large metropolitan area to a small, remote western area, in the mountains and have developed an off the grid homestead. We are practicing self sufficiency, conservation, organic gardening, and learning to live more simply. We miss nothing of our previous urban lifestyle. We have unplugged from the television and most other mainstream medias.
After doing several different work-exchanges at various farms/sanctuaries/communities, etc. in Oregon, New York and Hawaii, I've gained a better understanding of why none of them seemed to be Ideal, in an ethical/sustainable way, to human inner-nature or harmonious with outer Nature.
As part of our efforts to build a strong, inspired, and forward-looking community in Atlanta, our Evolver Regional chapter has begun planning to grow a garden this season.
"Banish the word 'struggle' from your attitude and your vocabulary. All that we do now must be done in a sacred manner and in celebration.
We are the ones we have been waiting for." — Hopi elders
