美国共产主义社团——阿尔法农场介绍 社区概述


翻译:沧海




Alpha Farm

阿尔法农场

Alpha Farm is an intentional community of people who have chosen to live and work together to share a more harmonious way of living. At our home in rural western Oregon, we live the largely self-reliant style of a close-knit expanded family; we average 15 to 20 people, including singles, couples and families, and have ranged in age from infants to elderly.

阿尔法农场是一个人们选择居住和工作在一起以享受一种更和谐的生活方式的理念社区。在俄勒冈州西部乡下的家里,我们过着一种大家庭式的高度自足的生活方式;我们平均有15~20位成员,包括单身、夫妻和家庭,年龄段则从婴儿延伸到中老年。

Alpha Farm is located about 25 miles from the Pacific Ocean and about 55 miles by road northwest of Eugene, the nearest city. Dense, predominantly conifer forests cover these steep hills of the Coast Range of Oregon, fed by abundant rainfall in the winter and dry, moderate summers. The 280-acre farm is nestled in a green finger valley among these hills. Our living spaces include a large old farmhouse, the five-bedroom "new house" built in 1980,
and an assortment of cabins, cottages, yurts and trailers. Dining and general living space has been tight for this large family, but it has always been the community guideline that each individual have a private room.

阿尔法农场位于距太平洋约25英里,离最近的城市尤金市西北大约有55英里路程的地方。密集的,以针叶类为主的森林覆盖了俄勒冈州沿海岸延伸的陡峭的山岗,它们被冬天丰富的降雨和夏天干燥适中的气候所滋养。这280英亩的农场坐落在这些丘陵中一个绿色手指状的山谷里。我们的居住空间包括:一间年老的大房子,修建于1980年的五居室“新房子”,以及各种各样的小屋、村舍、圆顶帐篷和拖车。对于这个大家庭来说,就餐和普通居住用空间已经比较紧张,不过每个成员都享有一个私人房间已经成为公社通常的原则。

At Alpha, the value of commitment runs deep. A good number of the people who have lived as "residents" for a year-long introductory period have stayed to become members. Our bylaws define the membership commitment as "for the foreseeable future" and for the average member,
this has been five to ten years or more. Many people, too, have come for shorter periods, staying for a summer or perhaps a year, a welcome addition to the diversity of the whole.

在阿尔法,承诺的观念深入人心。可观数量的人员经过一年的实验“居民”生活后已经留下来成为正式成员。我们的规章制度定义成员资格承诺为:“为可预知的未来”和为(成为)普通成员,这是五到十年的期限或更长。当然,也有许多人来居住一小段时光,停留一个夏季或许一年,这是整体的多样性所欢迎的。
