This group is for those who live in or around Bellingham, Washington.
At this time, our 'local' group is for Whatcom County residents only.


We are here to support each-other and learn from each-other.

This group was formed in hopes to form a solid community of like minded people for ourselves and our children.

Natural family living comes from Mothering magazine and some of us met off the MDC forum.
Some ideas/lifestyles we practice or are interested in include (but you don't have to agree or live all of them - we do respect each-other's differences)

• Natural pregnancy and childbirth
• Breastfeeding
• Cosleeping
• Mindful or attachment parenting (including babywearing)
• Developing and fostering community
• Organic and healthy foods
• Alternative medicine and nutrition
• Gentle discipline and parenting
• Living simply
• Healthy homes
* Homeschool/unschool
* Alternative Education
* Co-op's
* Green living
* Non-media driven lifestyle
* Alternative lifestyles
* Diversity
* Non/Selective Vax
* Sustainability


We want this group to grow, to stay connected, be a safe place, a welcoming place, a resource for our community, a tool for learning.
