Imagine... a village birthed from our shared visions, deepest longings, and ancestral memories of what could be, holding a resonance of peace that informs, inspires, and activates all who enter. This village is being conceived and built with peace, sustainability, and respect as its guiding principles. This is the third annual Peace Village at Jackson Wellsprings mineral springs resort just north of Ashland, at 2253 Hwy 99 North. There will be three nights of wonderful and varied music, a community market, skill share faire, healing sanctuary, kid village, community picnic, and a drum circle, plus delicious, nutritious—and reasonably priced—gourmet vegetarian meals and snacks provided by the Wellsprings’ new CafÈ NamastÈ.
The entire event is offered free of charge except for Friday evening’s two “Give Peace a Dance!” fundraisers featuring Cornflower, DJ Medicine Man, Ambe Ray, DJ Solus, and other local musicians and djs, plus a late night fire show by the pool by Liquid Fire Mantra. Saturday from 10am-4pm, there will be a CommUnity Market with fresh local produce and other local foods, local crafts, locally made herbal body care and herbal products, and all manner of treasures du garage, objects d’attique, and fine crafts from villages ‘round the world. Simultaneous with the market on Saturday, there will be a skill share faire with free classes in a variety of useful skills and a Healing Sanctuary with mini-sessions available from a variety of area healers and health professionals. Kid Village provides a place for the younger set to gather and play together. Come out and support our local economy at the community market, where barter is encouraged; learn new skills at the skill share faire; and experience wonderful new healing modalities at the Healing Sanctuary.
On Sunday, there will be a CommUnity Picnic from 12am to 4pm to which everyone in the community is invited. Dominic Allamano and friends will lead some community engagement exercises and games during the picnic. Our healing Sanctuary and Kid Village will also be active during that time. Afterwards, from 4pm-5pm, there will be a community drum circle facilitated by Shakerman. Bring your own drums and other percussion instruments, and some will also be provided.
Peace Village is a family friendly event with something for everyone. The financial model used is that of the gift economy wherein we are encouraged to give generously in relation to the value we receive. With the exception of the two fundraisers on Friday evening, all other parts of Peace Village have free admission, with contributions of cash, time, and energy encouraged since even free events cost money to produce.
The theme for this year’s Peace Village is “Let’s Village Together!”

Dear Farmers, Bakers, Herbalists, Craftspeople, Bee Keepers, Candlestick Makers, Traders, and Other Friends,

The next Bellview Grange EXPANDED CommUnity Market and Lunch is coming up this Saturday, August 8th at Peace Village, from 10am-4pm. We have been hosting markets and Pancake Breakfasts for over a year now, and this is our first outdoor one and our first one at Peace Village. Please come out and support this market. It is a project of -- and a shared benefit for — Bellview Grange and Peace Village. Help stimulate our local economy.

Local Marketplaces play a vital role in healthy economic eco-systems in rural communities ‘round the world, providing a place for farmers, fisherman, bakers, hummus ‘n candlestick makers, craftsmen & women, and traders to purvey their wares directly to villagers. This means the food is fresher (think fresh local cukes, tomatoes, peppers, and other veggies!), you (may) get to meet the farmer or producer, there is no middle man, and money spent stays within the community.

We still have some booth spaces available. If you want one (maybe to pass on some things from your garage or basement) or know of someone who does, please let me know: Larry or 535-3140. A 10’x10’ booth space is only $25.

We’d love to have you as a vendor at this market on Sat, August 8th. But even if you don’t set up to sell, please come by and shop at your community marketplace, have some lunch, and see your friends.
