Each parcel supports a residential community that involves a living and learning center, demonstrating and teaching cooperative community living, ecology and conservation, sustainable development, and natural living. In 2025, we continued to work on developing a new lease for our Amherst County, Virginia parcel. Our intention has been to lease this parcel to Stellar Roots, a collective of Black, Brown, and Indigenous People, rooted in healing and in service of land based community living. We also followed up on supporting our other parcels in the Land Trust; helping to solve disputes among parties and updating legal documents. Another focus of School of Living's CLT is public outreach and follow-up with outside inquiries to our CLT. 800 0 223 In 2025, School of Living's Administration Committee supported our public education projects by registering with the charitable solicitation agencies of Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Maryland.
