Who We Are
We are a member-led, intentional community for children, families, and lifelong learners of all ages. Our gatherings engage the whole community in a living model of learning and belonging. All of our members play an active role in cocreating the village through circle practice: small, heart-centered groups that each care for a different aspect of village life.
Circles
Inspired by council traditions and modern egalitarian governance practices, our Path Circles are a place for members to co-create opportunities for individual growth and collective connection. Together, we host shared meals, nature-based experiences, service projects, creative workshops, exploration in personal and spiritual growth, and more.​​​​​
Passages
Across cultures, communities have marked life’s transitions through rites of passage: moments that honor growth, belonging, and a new sense of purpose. We bring this practice to life in a modern way, inviting members of all ages to deepen their knowledge, share their gifts, and step into meaningful roles within the community.
