I want to create an intentional community for animal lovers who want to travel. We will take care of each others' pets. Additional goals are to live more sustainably (grow vegetables, have chickens and a goat, share a car or a truck, use solar power) and more sociably (share meals, conversations, morning yoga, perhaps massages and a hottub). Creative people with experience in gardening and construction are particularly welcome.

Urban homesteading can be a fun and fulfilling way to decrease your carbon footprint while learning useful methods for producing your own wholesome home staples.   We will be exploring canning & preserving, animal husbandry and beekeeping, gardening and mycology, foraging and gleaning, home crafting and sewing, permaculture practices, and the use of native plants for both culinary and medicinal uses.

We did our first meetup to improve a pathway in Oakland on Sunday, May 20th, and it was a success. Three days before the meetup I was the only "Yes" RSVP and was ready to cancel the event. However, then 2 others signed up and showed up. Then someone we did not know, but is a close neighbor saw us and joined us in removing the weeds. Our team of 4 did a great job as you may see in our photos. We hope to fill Oakland's need to improve the city's many hidden pathways and stairways. At first we will …
