“Community homestead adults with special needs live in extended family households. Some households include children. Each member of the house contributes his/her individual talents and so contributes to the harmony and smooth running of the home. Having the opportunity to help as well as to accept help emphasizes the value of us all. There are presently six households. Each household varies in its style and character, reflecting the personalities of its residents. Warmth and care for one another is common to all the households as is the stress upon a rhythm of life. Everyone has his/her own daily schedule, tailored to meet tastes and needs. Daily activities include garden, farm, woodshop, crafts, baking, cooking, housework, volunteer work in town, and part-time jobs.”
