SongCroft
Monroe, Washington,
United States
 "Living in the rhythm of blessed abundance!"
SongCroft is on three acres just outside of the small town of Snohomish, Washington (population 8,500). We are one hour from the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. Half of the land is left to its wild ways with a creek, hemlocks and cedar with plenty of wildlife to observe. Our focus is on permaculture and sustainable living. We have gardens, a greenhouse,orchard, and chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, bees, dogs, and a cat.
We would like to share a meal a week, purchase bulk foods together, share in the garden work and harvest as well as other care of the land. We are a farm community and are interested in others who are of an agrarian nature.
Our community is currently full but it looks like we will have an opening soon. We would love to connect with others in our area.
If you have an interest in finding out more, please check out our websites to see more of what we are up to and into and then give us a call or drop us a line.
