well I guess I would call Rural Living what i do. I have

no livestock, (except dog, cats, canaries and a few stick insects)

although i hope to have chickens some day, but my dog has killed

the neighbors' and so it might be quite a challenge to have them.

i do have fruit trees, and heat with wood and have solar panels to

provide some of the electric needs. My former house, for 25+ years

was off-the-grid with solar and hydro power. I share this land with

8 partners, and we live in community. I would be interested in knowing if any other catters live in collective, co-operative or
other group arrangements.
