An abundant community.<\/h2>

\u201cWhere the consumer society breeds individualism and its effects of entitlement and self-interest, an abundant community is marked by a collective accountability that can be created only in relationship to other people.\u201d<\/span>  John McKnight & Peter Block.  <\/p>

Abundance in a community has to do with the variety of gifts that individuals bring to it, and the value realized through building relationships with others.<\/p>

We think of High Cove as an \u201cintentional community,\u201d but it is not intentional in quite the same way as many communities associated with that label. It is planned and purposeful in its development, oriented to a set of goals and principles, committed to an ideal of community, but it is not the sort of community where the group gets to decide who joins and who doesn\u2019t, where there is a litmus test for membership.\n

As a result, High Cove has attracted people from different walks of life, who bring a range of activities, projects and passions to the community.  As in the old parable of \u201cstone soup,\u201d the community is a work in progress, expanding and improving as each new member contributes their passions and projects.<\/p> <\/div>

COMMUNITY GARDEN<\/h4>

The community garden was created as a community project in the spring, 2017.  The group built 6 raised beds in the pasture, near the Artists Studio Court.  It was fenced in last year to keep the deer from eating everything.   The location was selected because the gardeners wanted to be close to other activity.   It is open to any community members who would like to participate.    <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>
