Welcome to the community

(this is the view from our cherished Bhakti mtn into the heart of Just Love)

I am grateful to have you on this journey

It is with open hearts and immense joy that we welcome you to our cherished Just Love Forest Community. Your decision to join us marks the beginning of a beautiful and courageous journey that we are thrilled to embark on together.

For years, the Just Love Forest has been a labor of love, shaped and nurtured by the collective dreams and hard work of individuals united by a common passion for nature, community, and sustainable living. Together, we have created winding trails that meander through the serene beauty of the forest, constructed cozy yurts that offer a home away from home, and fostered an environment where every soul is encouraged to thrive in harmony with the natural world.

Our journey has been one of courage, a path led by the heart, and illuminated by the shared belief in the power of love and community to enact positive change. It is a testament to what we can achieve when we come together, guided by the principles of kindness, respect, and a deep-seated commitment to preserving the beauty of the earth for generations to come.

As a member of the Just Love Forest Community, you are now an integral part of this ongoing adventure. Your membership not only offers you affordable and expanded access to the wonders of the forest but also invites you to contribute to our collective efforts to nurture and grow this special place. Whether it's through participating in trail maintenance, joining community gatherings, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the forest, your presence and involvement enrich our community.

We encourage you to explore, to connect with fellow members, and to find your unique way of contributing to the life of the Just Love Forest. There is so much to discover, and we are excited to witness the new paths of friendship, learning, and growth that we will forge together.
