"No matter how much I hated it, I had to face up to the fact that I would have to earn some money. I was like many fullbloods. I didn't want to work in an office or a factory. I thought myself too good for that, not because I was stuck up, but because any human being is too good for that kind of no-life, even white people. I trained myself to need and want as little as could be so that I wouldn't have to work except when I felt like it. That way, I got along fine with plenty of time to think, to ask, to learn, to listen, to count coup with the girls." - John Lame Deer |

Alternative Living
Dragonvale - Have you ever wanted to wake up in the morning without stress, and eager to start the day, and to really enjoy the way you make a living? Do you want to live a life full of magic, wonder, joy?If you've said yes to any or all of these questions, then perhaps Dragonvale is what you seek.
Dragonvale is a dream to create a self-sufficient, sustainable community that earns its living by teaching through entertainment. Our goal is to set up our community to be a full-time fantasy/celtic village, with its own architecture, music, and culture. Several times a year, we will hold large festivals which are open to the public and will operate in like a Renaissance Faire, though the detail and participation will be much greater.
So if you are interested in creating a life instead of just earning a living, you should read on.
Ecovillages/The Global Village Network - The Global Ecovillage Network (GEN) is a grassroots non-profit organization that links together a highly diverse worldwide movement of autonomous ecovillages and related projects.
Intentional Communities Web - The Fellowship for Intentional Community nurtures connections and cooperation among communitarians and their friends.

Sustainable Communities Network - Imagine what a safe, livable, healthy community might look like. Around the country citizens are coming together to create a vision of what their community might be and to develop steps toward making these visions come true. Alternatively called "healthy," livable" or sustainable communities, these efforts are integrative, inclusive and participatory. In many communities -- large and small, rural and urban -- issues are being addressed in an interconnected manner. They are demonstrating how innovative strategies can produce communities that are more environmentally sound, economically prosperous, and socially equitable.
