美国共产主义社团——沙丘鹤公社介绍 社区概述
翻译:沧海
We've been farming organically and building community since 1974 on 135 acres in rural, northeast Missouri. We grow the great majority of our food and share income, meals, vehicles and other resources. Our membership consists of 6 adults and a thirteen year old child.
自1974年以来,我们一直在密苏里州东北部农村135英亩的土地上进行有机农业和公社建造。我们的绝大部分食物依靠自己种植,并且共享收益、膳食、交通工具以及其它资源。我们的会员由六位成人和一位13岁的孩子组成。
We have a simple and healthy lifestyle; creativity, ecological sustainability, nonviolence, personal freedom, honest communication, consensus decision-making and emotional support are core values.
我们过着一种简单和健康的生活;创造性、生态可持续、零暴力、个人自由、诚实交往、集体决议、以及人性化是我们的核心理念。
Our land includes large vegetable/herb gardens, orchards, woods, hayfields, bee yards, cropland and pasture. We raise chickens for eggs, meat and manure. We also raise turkeys. We hunt deer from our land. We produce and sell sorghum syrup, tempeh, honey, garlic, mustard, horseradish and various seasonal condiments . Our population swells during the growing and
harvest seasons with interns, visitors and guests. Our fall sorghum harvest has become a Sandhill tradition. Not only is sorghum syrup our biggest agricultural income source, it's also one of our main social events of the year. New friends and old from all over the country and other intentional communities come to help bring in the crop and join in the fun.
我们的土地包括大型蔬菜/香草园、果园、森林、种秣草地、蜂场、农田以及牧场。我们养鸡以供给鸡蛋、食肉和肥料。我们还养有火鸡。我们从自己的土地上猎鹿。我们生产和销售高粱糖浆、印尼豆鼔、蜂蜜、大蒜、芥菜、山葵等各种各样的季节性调味品。我们的人口在种植和收获季节会增多,包括实习生、访问者和客人。我们的高粱秋收已经成为沙丘鹤的经典传统,不仅高粱糖浆是我们最大的农业收入来源,而且是我们一年里的主要社会事件。从这个国家以及其它公社来的新老朋友帮助我们生产这个产品并分享其中的乐趣。
We have housing to accommodate additional members. We are looking for people who enjoy a rural and alternative lifestyle, who wish to live and interact with children and who connect well with the land and its seasons.
我们有住房供给更多的成员,我们正在寻找喜欢乡村和选择性生活方式,并能和孩子们融合以及能够适应土地及其时节的人。
Personal qualities which work well here are self-motivation , conscientious and willingness to engage in group process work. We strive to maintain a multi-generational balance; currently (2009), we are hoping to attract new members in the 25-45 age bracket. We encourage prospective members to begin a dialogue with us at any time by writing and visiting.
能在这里工作好的个人品质要求是:自我激励、敬业、乐意从事集体工作。我们努力维持一种多渠道平衡;目前(2009年),我们希望能吸纳一批25-45岁年龄段的新成员,我们鼓励符合条件的人员在任何时候通过书信和拜访与我们沟通。
