A conversation with Stu, a founding member of Dragonfly Farm. Dragonfly is a rural communal land project near Bancroft, Ontario that was founded in 1978. We talk about how he and his friends got the land, how they’ve endured and navigated conflict over the years, and advice he has for folks wanting to live rurally and/or communally today.
