The Farmhouse is up and Running
Friday, June 19, 2009 — Filed in: Events
The buildings
on the old Keene farm (a portion of which is the site
of our community) have been a work in progress for
equity member Alan Gibson and his construction crew
for many months. There's much to do yet, particularly
with the barn, but the farmhouse itself is finished
enough for us to begin using it for regular community
meetings. We've also begun making the space available
to outside groups whose mission and purpose are in
harmony with our own — a practice we hope to expand
on once our Common House is built.
The first such event, "Stone Age Economics," will take place on Wednesday, July 8th, at the farmhouse (45 Edgecomb Rd, Belfast). This presentation by the Newforest Institute is the third in a six-part series called "Permafeast!"— hands-on workshops that demonstrate the principals of permaculture and natural farming. The session will be held from 4:30-7:30 p.m. The cost is $20 ($100 for the entire series). Advance reservation is requested; class size will be limited to 15.
