Meadowdance was a group of adults and children who chose to live, work, and raise children together in the beautiful state of Vermont. After three years of planning, both over e-mail discussions and at gatherings, the first members bought a home and moved in together in May of 2000. Over the next eight years, Meadowdance grew and thrived and welcomed new members. We came from a variety of locations in the US and range in aged from newborns to 50 somethings. Our members included those who were married or sin
In Meadowdance, we shared housing as well as income. Our primary income as a group came from Wordsworth , a home business offering typing and transcription services. Part of that business later became Editide and both still continue on.
In 2008, the last of our members parted ways. Over the years we forged many friendships, dealt with many difficult issues, and welcomed wonderful children into our home.
