Would you want to live on a BFP compound? Definitely


What skills can you contribute? Being an RN, I can offer my medical skills. I am also really good with animals.. I whisper to them daily, sometimes yell also.


Would you want to do community meals every night in the "Mess Hall"? This could definitely be an option. Maybe offer to go orders as well for those folks who just can't stay for dinner but need to eat.


Would people still need to pay something into the system like rent, even if it was only nominal? I think it would be a good idea to pay a nominal fee. Or services could be bartered or set like on a point system. You cook three times a week and you get free meals for the whole week... etc.


Do you think you'd get tired of living with family all year long? What family doesn't get tired of each other? If you have 400 acres available, set aside 100 acres or so in the back 40 for those who need seclusion. People could camp out there or we could build some cabins that come work by first come first serve type of deal.


What pro's and con's can you see to this idea? Pros would be we can be ourselves no matter what. We all have many skills, life experiences to offer. We could learn from each other.
Cons: You can wind up cutting yourself off from the rest of the world, but hey, sometimes that is not a bad thing. We could still come and go with a secret handshake or something.

What input do you have?

A creek or stream would be nice. Disagreements can happen when in close proximity. Have some type of system to handle such arguments if the two people can't handle them on their own... sort of like timing them out!
