we visited the land today and it's definitely amazing! not sure that it will happen this time around...this has come up about 1 year too soon. we still need time to think and have a solid idea of what we're doing. but it's such an incredible deal...i can't even get a one bedroom condo in my hood for that price. talked to the owner for a while today and we seem to be very much on the same page. it was pretty cool. plus i learned that 900 acres surrounding the land is conservation land. no growth potential is a damn nice incentive. so is the boat dock and water less than a mile away. regardless of what happens with this particular piece of land, serious wheels are now in motion.
There are several cohousing groups in Seattle that you could take a look at to get you started. I know less about land trusts but information is around in that community.
Check out the Fellowship for Intentional Community. They have a communities directory that is interesting reading and highlights the different ways people approach intentional community.
Their annual conference has lots of workshops about specific topics like land trusts.
we went out to the land today...i kept wishing you were with us to note all of the zillion things my untrained eyes probably glossed right over. this land is only 90 minutes from olympia. :)

build a few cabins and huts across the acres and rotate residents of trusted friends and contribute to the farming, etc.

Hypothetically, would you want to include agriculture?
