Dreaming Our Common House

“Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, and magic and power in it. Begin it now.” – Goethe

The future beating heart of our agrivillage will be our Common House — the place where we cook, share meals, play, sing, dance, make art, meet, and connect with one another on a daily basis. We gathered this weekend with architect Bryan from Caddis Collaborative to help weave our many dreams for this central space into a single, collective vision that can be designed and built. We discussed everything from how we want to feel in our common living room to what do with muddy boots to where to store half-finished puzzles. How exciting to begin to bring our dreams out of the clouds and onto the ground!
