Charter

We recognize the importance of creating a Space of Love and Care, to last many lifetimes, so we and future generations, are truly nourished on all levels of being.
We recognize the value of family and our responsibility to provide a safe, loving, nurturing, nourishing space for future generations.
We value the significance of conscious conception, pregnancy and home birth.
We honor the wisdom within children and know that learning comes naturally and does not need to be forced.
We care for our Earth and use resources wisely. This means we live, build, clothe and eat sustainably.
We know that growing our own food is imperative and that an intimate connection with the growing process provides superior, personalized nutrition and therefore good health.
We aim for self-sufficiency as a village.
We intend to return to our Pristine Origins, living a life in alignment with Divine Will,
in harmony with Nature and the Universe.
We recognize and nurture ourselves as divine and sovereign beings.
We know we are creators of our reality and therefore we use our powers of manifestation
wisely and accept responsibility for our lives.
We know we are capable of achieving whatever we put our minds to.
We know the answers are within us and we are open to learning and exploring new territory.
We value time alone as well as time with others.
We value contemplation as well as action.
We give and receive as we are ready and able, preferably not keeping score.
We embrace technology where necessary, being mindful of keeping harmful effects to a minimum.
We recognize this is a life-long project and what we put into it is what we get out of it.
We acknowledge we are in transition and have patience and perseverance with this unfolding process.
We Protect, Respect, Nurture and Cherish.
We abide by Love, Peace and Truth.

The charter's corollary is the list of reasons that you should consider as they probably would prevent you from finding happiness in our community:

If you have expectations of others doing things for you.
If you are dogmatic and or obsessed about diet/food
If you are running away, escaping or in fear.
If you want things to stay the way they are.
If you are looking for value for money or real-estate.
If you want to move straight into paradise.
If you think living this lifestyle will instantly solve all your problems.
If you like to identify and distract yourself with problems.
If you do not wish to accept responsibility for yourself.
If you feel experts and authorities know best.
If you wish to consume or use toxic substances.
If you exhibit abusive or destructive behavior.
If you are addicted to the technocratic world.
If you adhere to or are influenced by dogma.
If you are anti-specist
If you are powered by drama.
If you are prone to competition or gossip.
If you see the glass half empty rather than half full.
