Commune is Real

Blog

We have tried to keep a blog as a record of our activities and as a learning resource for other groups wishing to undertake a similar journey. Blog entries are accompanied by perspectives, written by individual community members, and photographs where possible.

Sandy Lane

The first meet up was held in the Gower Peninsula in Wales, at a community called Sandy Lane. Eleven of the group members got together to stay in an eco-cottage and begin discussing the hopes for our shared future.

The commune is real!

The project, in its current incarnation, began on the 23rd of May, 2016. What had, until this point, been pipeline dreams and wistful conversation, became formalised for the first time with the formation of a Facebook group and a series of discussions between people from several friendship circles.
