A cool fun book with relevant info for these perilous times. Now as in the 60s, we face grave dangers and personal challenges. Now as in the 60s, people are coming together in powerful movements with positive motives and messages. The Farm commune was born out of the heat and energy of the 60s as a bold experiment in collective living, veganism, alternative energy, sustainable living, midwifery and free thinking paradigms.An important piece of history. Stories of extraordinary personal and group transformation.“Imagine all the people living life in peace.”—John Lennon. "That was us! We had it going." Put a flower in your hair and come to San Francisco. History comes alive in Melvyn Stiriss' action-packed, first-person journey through the ages. True entertaining tales that open doors and reveal inner realms of those heady, revolutionary times—times rich in lessons that can help us now. Part 2 transports the reader to a remarkable, often beautiful place and state of mind. Every chapter an entertainingly crafted unique adventure exploring the now relevant question: Can back-to-the-land collective living really help save the world Relive the pioneer days of a bold 12-year experiment involving thousands of dedicated people. Adventures out of the box in search of enlightenment and a better way to live. Stiriss sheds new light on the 60s when, as a UPI reporter, he followed the story of the times over the edge to live the story himself and to find a meaningful life.Stiriss—“I co-founded and lived thirteen years in America’s biggest commune not undercover but as a full-fledged member of the hippie collective, living the dream, “saving the world.” The idea of writing about the experience came after, when I realized the importance of reporting behind-the-scenes, everyday observations of one of the most-intriguing social experiments to come out of that heady era.”Enter what may seem another world. Entertaining, informative, true stories of America’s biggest commune—The Farm—a remarkable bold attempt to “get out of the box” and create a better way of life—Earth-friendly, people-friendly, eclectic, agrarian, vegan community and pioneering cannabis church—a commune awarded the Swedish Right Livelihood Award—“For caring, sharing and acting with and on behalf of those in need at home and abroad.” An example of The Farm’s humanitarian outreach, the author worked with Mayans and a crew from the community in remote villages after a devastating earthquake in Guatemala—building rural schools, clinics, houses and a clinic for Mother Teresa. “Imagine all the people living life in peace.”—John Lennon That was us! We had it going. Cool, fun, weaving of journalism, pathos and humor transports the reader on an entertaining, mind-expanding, psychedelic odyssey. Over the collective’s 13 years, 5,000 people lived and worked together as “voluntary peasants” sharing labor, life and friendship—a path with heart—working without pay—to create a globally-affordable, sustainable safe, sane, eclectic, agrarian, egalitarian, meaningful, fun lifestyle. The Farm was a grassroots, 24/7 peace demonstration.Pooling resources, working together, we built our own town—complete with farming, construction, motor pool, soy dairy, clinic, lab, doctors, midwives, bakery, cottage industries, FM radio station, solar-heated school, a dozen satellite communities and humanitarian outreach projects around the world. At peak—1,450 people enjoyed Zero Unemployment, Universal Healthcare, and all necessities on $100/person a month!” This includes the author’s deeply personal spiritual student-teacher relationship with Stephen Gaskin; personal “yogas” placed on him, “spiritual missions” to perform and what that all led too. We also examine group think and the guru trip.Voluntary Peasants—A Psychedelic Journey to the Ultimate Hippie Commune—The Farm will be in print Spring, 2017Visit www.voluntarypeasants.com.
