Thousands of groups of people around the country and world have come to the conclusion that modern society's structure is unhealthy for the Earth and humans. Therefore they, and we, decided to become part of the intentional community movement. Most communities have formed with a specific focus (religion, social issues, organic food, voluntary simplicity, ecology, etc.). Intentional communities vary in size from a handful of people to a village of thousands. Some communities grow all of their own food and eat together everyday; other communities live in cities and only see each other after work. They all have a common desire for a slower pace of life in which you know and interact with your immediate neighbors on a regular basis as well as work together for the greater good. The intent of Deeply Rooted is to have 10-12 full-time members, grow as much of our own food as possible, live in a sustainable manner on earth, assist the greater pagan community to the best of our abilities, and work and live together in a cooperative manner.
