We are using wisdom from what we learned from our elders to be responsible to earth as a connected system and to celebrate both ancient cultures of our people.

We are practicing homesteading, and a permanent culture which is a philosophy of working with nature. Our perma-home is our lifestyle of self-sufficiency. We practice agriculture, home preservation of food, natural pest control, recycling and a small amount of production of natural fibers, clothing, and craftwork from items grown on the perma-home for household use or sale.

We have a keen sense of looking at plants and animals in all their functions, to determine their contribution to each other and ourselves as a self-sufficiency method of survival.

We practice a set of principles developed around whole systems thinking to utilize the behaviors and features we notice in our natural connected systems.

We take advantage of renewable energy by using solar electricity. We also plant and grow heirloom vegetables and raise heritage livestock.

Our ultimate goal is self-sufficiency from our perma-home in which we need little or no help from outside employment.
