Alpha Farm, Deadwood Creek, Oregon
Article Abstract:
Residents of Alpha Farm came to the commune for a variety of reasons, some were looking for a sense of community, others for freedom, and others wanted a special environment in which to raise their children. The community is governed by consensus and all tasks are shared by the group members. Twenty years after its creation few of the original tenants remain as a younger group with new expectations arrives.
