Strength in Numbers
The Mad River Valley's new Kibbutz inspired community with co-housing is a wonderful example of a spiritually based- back to the earth community movement. By creating an environment where residents and visitors alike glimpse a world that, while full of sacrifice, hard work, and diligence, provides a transformational path to self, and a dialogue with an extended family to process our lives in a meaningful way.

The Little Giant
