Our Vision for Irie Mountain Blessed:
- To establish an intentional community based on truth and reconciliation.
- To include people of all ages and abilities in skilled work activities.
- To share ancient practices, stories, and celebrate culture.
- To support local craftspeople and be a marketplace for natural goods.
- To provide therapeutic movement, dance, music, art, games and exercises for wellness and healthy bodies, minds and spirits.
- To give back to the community by providing needed resources.
- To practice sustainability and honor the land and people who live there.
When we are children, the simplest experiences can fill us with a sense of wonder and respect for life. But when we become adults, it can be harder to find fulfillment and feel truly connected. That is why Irie Mountain Blessed was founded: to provide us with a renewed feeling of being fully alive and connected to each other in our world.
