  Description

  Carolyn and Mick are in the process of developing our small community, a sanctuary where we're aspiring to grow our own food, express ourselves creatively, and have fun! We live on 1.2 acres in a residential neighbourhood, near farms, but close to town as well. We have our very own labyrinth in the backyard. It's an ancient tool for walking mindfully, in peace, for meditation and self-discovery.
