Why A Private Club?At the Garden of Eden we are living a lifestyle that is radically different from mainstream American culture. Especially in the conservative republican bible belt of FT Worth TX Metropolis.
Our unique community culture is founded upon and governed by our values and beliefs in the importance of Consciousness, Sustainability, Responsibility and Freedom. We recognize that our beliefs and values are our own, and that our lifestyle may not be for everyone. Though we do feel strongly that it is a part of our purpose for existing that we share this realm of possibility with those that wish to embrace it, we do not seek to change or recruit anyone. We seek to share ONLY with those who WANT to experience and learn about New Paradigm Living, who choose FREELY to partake of and participate in this joyful experience with us, who are WILLING and ABLE to support us in fulfilling our honorable purpose. Stepping Up Our Security
We are aware that there are those who disagree with our lifestyle, and we in fact support everyone's right to choose for themselves how to live their own lives, so long as each person's inherent rights are respected.
We are also very aware that there are those who would seek to suppress us, control us, even capture or harm us, because our beliefs and way of living is so different. The BLACK OPS SWAT Raid that occurred here in August of 2013 is proof of the misunderstandings and ill intent that some people and institutions harbor towards us and our way of life. In order to protect and secure the safety and freedom of EVERYONE present within these lands, we have created this private membership system. It is our hope that this private Membership system will filter out anyone who does not share our values, support our purpose, respect our lifestyle or our privacy.

A Safe HavenOur goals in instating this membership system include:
Creating a safe space for freedom of raw, unfiltered, authentic expression Ensuring the privacy of all Inhabitants and Members of the GoE 
A Path for PurposeIt is our belief that our purpose of sharing New Paradigm Realities is of utmost importance and that to compromise our ability to carry out and share those realities would be a great loss for all.
In the privacy of this Members Only space, we have a greater degree of freedom and security to live as we choose, with those most beneficial for the entire club, to express ourselves in a way that is raw, real and authentic. This in turn creates conditions in which we have an enhanced capacity to share with those who want what we offer.

The GoE actually has a negative carbon footprint! We are salvaging tons of materials from trash regularly, in comparison to almost $0 that we spend in industrial commerce, including food.
|
Proceeds Not ProfitsAll Proceeds, in the forms of money, goods, services and time/energy that is given to the Garden of Eden through donation or other exchange, goes directly to support the creation of sustainable communities and to the Sharing of New paradigm Possibilities.
Because of Quinn's consciousness of sustainability, those who live and thrive at the Garden of Eden are doing so with the use of a minimal amount of financial resources. In a month, the combined total expenses/purchases/use of money for all 10-20 individuals living here doesn't even exceed $500. Thats $50 or less money used/consumed for each individual for a whole month for health and happiness here in The GOE! The vast majority of the monetary resources that come through here can therefore be invested in sustainable realities that have the potential to serve and support people for a lifetime. |
