Neighborhood of homes designed as a walkable, human-scale village
-
Proven patterns that enable opportunities for a balance of social interaction and privacy
-
Independent, ecological homes clustered along walkable pathways and shared open spaces
-
Following the cohousing model pioneered in Denmark, the heart of the neighborhood is the “commons” – a building that provides large kitchen, dining area, and shareable library, laundry, and additional facilities that are owned and managed by residents.
-
Residential community sited on agricultural land that owners can access at no additional cost
-
Opportunities for residents to enjoy open space and have access to the land for regenerative agricultural enterprises (be they commercial or subsistence)
-
Opportunities for collaboration and innovation
-
Permaculture master plan will guide agricultural activities so they are both productive and restorative
-
We will build platforms to share knowledge gained through farmland and food-growing practices, from within and outside the community.
-
Part of the acreage will be utilized for programming, providing a place for experimentation and demonstration of regenerative techniques.
-
We have an attitude of openness regarding sharing what we learn through this life-changing process.
-
We plan to work with the Snohomish Conservation District on setting up viable farm enterprise plans that steward the land, while maintaining or improving yields.
-
We will explore financially viable options that maximize benefit in terms of soil stewardship, carbon sequestration, and ecologically diverse production systems.
-
We intend to explore systems such as silvopasture, alley-cropping, managed grazing, forest farming, productive riparian buffer strips, and regenerative agriculture.
