Hey all so I’ve been searching but have had little luck or am using the wrong wording maybe. Any ways does anyone know preferably examples in the USA but really anywhere in the world would be a helpful start…

Are there groups of homesteads in the same physical area (like neighbors) that work together to build their own collective community but still run their own homesteads?

I’m not sure what this would be called and I’m not talking about a commune nessisarily that is more a group of people living together and sharing possessions and responsibilities so similar I guess but not to an extreme? What I mean is maybe like up to a dozen homesteads all next to and located near one another, each still owning their own land etc. Maybe a community hall in the center of all of them but still.

This concept really interests me and I’m wanting to learn as much as I can from similar situations but am not having much luck. Any thoughts would be appreciated or any suggestions.

As I mentioned I could see maybe like a dozen homesteads? maybe 100 aches each? With woods of course but also depending on what they have and grow. Each homestead would over all be self sufficient but possibly have a specialty(s) to contribute towards the whole if needed. I have no clue where you would start with this but that’s okay it’s a thought project in progress I guess 😅

Thank you in advance for all your thoughts and suggestions. Enjoy these experiences we call life ❤️
