There are a four or five IC's in Floyd County, some closed and some
accepting new members. I have friends that have lived or currently live in
the ICs here in the county or elsewhere.

On our Plan A-Z list, if we sell our farm, we are considering live in one
(Abundant Dawn), but that's not necessarily Plan B. Another, Highland Haven,
is a completely different sort of IC--it's for owners of Airstreams and
they're all parked on the the ridge of what used to be a farm, overlooking
several fruit trees and a pond.

I love the idea of a shared garden where I don't do most of the work,
especially 10 years from now.
