    Hello Friends - Future Community Members and Partners

Alt Terra Commons is a New Millennium "Leading Edge" Forward Thinking Concept for the Intentional Community Lifestyle and We Want You - Future Residents, Donors, Investors and/or Affiliates, to Come Join Us in Developing and Fulfilling this Wonderful Vision.  Now although we are essentially a Non-Profit Land Trust, we also intend to Operate various For-Profit Business's, and therefore Welcome both: A. Benefactor Support - Donations / Grants, and B. Business Support - Investments / Seed Money from those who believe in a “Shared Economy”, IE: Donations, Profit Sharing, Co-ops, Sponsorships, Kick Starters and so on.  To get started, Our Initial Goal is to purchase a Suitable Property, House or Land, where all the ATC Members can live, work and play, and our Ultimate Goal is to complete the "Master Plan" - Eco-Ranch.  Our Choices are either: A) Compact House, and/or B) Standard House - House Share, and/or C) Medium Size Land and/or D) Large Size Land - Land Share.  And which comes first is entirely dependent upon how much Money - Cash Down and Monthly Income, plus Donations and Investments, is Earned and Raised.  Are You Ready!
