Occidental, CA, Homes for Sale
Occidental is unique for its high concentration of visionaries and famous artists during recent history, and was the hub of community-centered social movements in the late 1960s and early 1970s, giving rise to nearby communes such as Morningstar, Wheeler Ranch, and Star Mountain. There was a point in the early 1990s when the town was also a center of the "neo-hippie" movement in Sonoma County.
In 1994, a group of seven friends established residency on this land, forming a limited liability company (LLC) called Sowing Circle. Soon after, the group founded the Occidental Arts & Ecology Center, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that would reside in the same place. These two entities formed a lasting mutually beneficial relationship, one enriching the other in a symbiotic reciprocity that continues to this day.
The goal of this interrelationship is to create a resilient and restorative version of the best of what our ancestors enjoyed while also pioneering something contemporary, unique and capable of addressing the challenges of today’s world. After two decades of collective living and land management, Sowing Circle and OAEC demonstrate that building restored and resilient communities requires a long-term investment in relationships and places.
