"We've got to get ourselves back to the garden". [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosby,_Stills_%26_Nash_(and_Young) Crosby, Stills and Nash] sang that refrain in the '60's', but the words have never been truer than they are today.

We must create a new Garden which will be an environmentally sustainable model for [[spiritual]] community, a superb [[culture|cultural]] center, and a blueprint for divine patterns of living. It will create a physical prototype for global spiritual community where those who seek to do the Divine Will can live together in harmonious ways; a place which unites believers of diverse [[faith]]s rather than divides them, and where all members of the community [[worship]] together to honor the [https://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=First_Source_and_Center One Source and Center]. The new Garden will uplift the feminine and re-establish a model of true [[gender]] equity and balanced partnership between males and females.

==About Us==
==About Us==
The Garden Project will evolve from the hearts and [[mind]]s of many people committed to working in partnership with [[Spirit]]. A team of Garden Commissioners will be elected in the spring of '09 to act as an interim administrative body for the project, and will provide a fair, representative administration which is not dependent on any one [[individual]] or leader to function. The Garden Commissioners and a site selection committee will work together to select a beautiful site in a salubrious climate with substantial acreage, sufficient water and arable land. The location should provide a means for the community to generate it's own energy from water, solar, or wind. The property should be somewhat isolated to promote a sense of spiritual community separate from how secular life is lived on the planet.

Car rental is the cheapest means of transport, and if split with 2-3 others will run about $30. per person roundtrip.
