In just over three weeks, I will be heading back to Rutledge, MO, to live at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage.
Last year, I visited for three weeks shortly after I graduated from college. That visit changed my post-school course of action, and I knew that I wanted to return for a longer period of time in the near future, to fully immerse myself in the lifestyle, to learn more, and to see if the ecovillage setting was a viable option.
So, from April to about November, I will fully submerse myself in this atmosphere, and I’m excited about the possibilities. I know living there will be quite different from my visit. There will be lots to experience, and I will have different responsibilities and opportunities.
I am glad this move is finally starting to feel like it’s actually happening. For a while, it felt so far off in the distance. Now, I actually have to start thinking about what to bring with me.
While I am there, I plan to do fairly extensive writing here. Expect relevant photos, too. Most importantly, there are several ideas for video projects that I want to take on. So please keep an eye on this space for updates.
(Side note… a couple days ago, I got word that I will be able to rent the bottom half of the lower grain bin, which is pretty exciting. Photos below are from last year, but it probably looks about the same.)
Note: Please find all of my cob building related content at my new blog, The Year of Mud: Building a cob house. Thanks! See you there!
