Additional information
We both have had experiences with different types of collaborative land models. Some things that we would bring to the table include ecological understanding, farm and garden experience, construction management, cultivating educational experiences, and networking & collaborating locally and regionally.
We have the skills, passions, ideas, and energy to take the next steps. We have been considering and preparing to build a tiny house or cabin - to start on our personal project and step closer towards our long term dreams. We are excited to find a place with opportunity to tend the land, and develop a shared home.
