4% interest a year on any investment and 30 days left to participate.



To all my friends, supporters, and Awakened Dreamers who are interested in protecting Mother Earth at a local level – PLEASE READ! There is now the possibility to protect 380 acres of land surrounding The Oasis.
Hi, I am Michel Palmer and this letter has been written to seek your support in protecting a beautiful wilderness area on the North Mountain near Middleton in the Annapolis Valley, N.S. Presently there is a 380 acre piece of forested land for sale next to my land, The Oasis, which I have first right of refusal to purchase. The final date to make this purchase is June 15th, 2012 (Money has to be in Trust Fund by June 05/12!!!), and currently there is a competing offer from a former owner who plans to create a Christmas tree plantation on this natural woodland. Every day I wake up knowing that I must do something – everything that I can to prevent this from happening. Mother Earth herself is speaking about the need to awaken other human beings so that we can come together and create a beautiful synergistic project of the human spirit.
My ideas include helping to create a caretakers society, an Eco-village, an association or shared ownership model to better steward this land. There are many possibilities for what this could look like and I am open to a range of diverse models. For this I will seek collaborative input and ideas from all stakeholders who want to participate. I envision a project based on organic and permaculture principles to create an ecologically sustainable place of healing; a creative, artistic space that will allow many people to belong, share and take part in protecting this land.
What can be done? Action plan
The first step is to purchase and to secure the land. The deadline is June 15th, 2012 (Money has to be in Trust Fund by June 05/12!!!). The price of the land is approximately $190,000, and I am now seeking investors able to extend a loan of at least $5000, with an annual rate of return of 4% interest for 2 years; Parker & Richter Law Firm in Greenwood N.S. has been retained to provide notarized promissory notes to secure the loan.
The next step will be to bring together all stakeholders into a formal Association, Executive Membership, or Board of Directors which would then purchase the initial loans and accumulated interest, ultimately creating a supporting membership of caretakers. These same people will come together with a shared vision for the future of the land.


Close to half of the money has been pledged so far. So now is the time to participate and do something beautiful with this piece of land.

          For those who want to invest less than $5000 or for less time than 2 years, arrangements can be made. For further information, please contact Michel Palmer at (902) 825-3954. Telephone is the preferred means for communication, I am presently still on dial-up Internet.
