Made the silly mistake of trying to disabuse myself of the fantasy of rewilding a bit of land with some interlaced permaculture, as am barely functional & very clueless, but wanted to avoid group projects as very introverted & would want to camp overnight at times then perhaps graduate to an extra-basic one-person cob structure.

Found something ideal-seeming isn't nearly as costly as I'd imagined, so the fantasies I'd been trying to shed have gone... stratospheric.

Don't really know anyone, so can't even get together a group to buy it as a trust, but may give a collective I'm aware of a head's up as they're likely to know of other collectives who have yet to find suitable land.
