Padanaram Community

Communal spaces and places
Description

One of the older intentional communities in the USA. Their Facebook site says:

“Padanaram is alive and well today and is located on nearly 3,000 acres in the wooded countryside of Martin County in southern Indiana. Founded in 1966 by Daniel Wright, his wife Lois and a few friends, it has grown from 86 acres to its present size.”

God’s Valley in Indiana. An relatively old ‘backwoods’ commune first formed by devoutly, and individually religious, Daniel Wright. At one time 200 folk lived there. But it is just about keeping going, now more a 'community' than a commune.

    Would love to know more about this commune, my fiance and I are staying in the woods in a tent with our dogs. We are trying to find a place to settle and this seems like our kind of people and area!

    Hi there, I have been looking for a place to share my talents. Gardening, landscaping, cooking and music. The age of 56 has found me single no family. I have been underemployed, unemployed and sometimes living in my car. I have been living with friends in Anderson,In. That place has been sold and we have to be out by October. I would love information to know if I might be able to become a contributing member to your community.

About

We aim to incorporate:

– an ideas exchange – with various forums for discussion and debate
– resources sections with hyperlinks and actual information material. Potentially an online library with links to specific resources and publications, images, videos, and
– a 'web of hubs’ to sites, organisations and individuals around the world.
It’s a bold dream…we hope you and friends will help it grow…
