We want to live in a community where people care for each other and for our environment, so that we can co-create a livable future. We give priority to the needs of the community as a whole, but respect individual preferences in the process of doing so.
We commit to contribute to the work of the community, to communicate with honesty and respect, to productive deliberation and compromise, to share resources, skills, meals, and fun, and to support each other through difficult times. We recognize that diversity in demographics and skills strengthens us, and strive to create a community that creatively addresses financial barriers to joining.
