Private 2+ acre lots with modern high-performance natural building.

Your own private acreage, in a farm community that shares your values.

Join a modern agrihood community: 4-6 private homesteads on 80-160 acres, surrounded by farmland, woodland, and shared trails. Unlike collectivist models, you own your lot while choosing your level of connection to a working farm.

Unlike developments or eco-villages, sunrise offers:

  • 2-5 acre, private homes (exclusive use) that can be rented and resold
  • Shared ownership of natural areas (woodlands, farmland, ponds)
  • Participation in farm business (employment, CSA, workshops)
  • Access to farmland for private ventures or cooperation
  • Pre-planned water, access road, and community guidelines for simplicity & structure
  • Like-minded neighbours - with independence

The Sunrise farm remains privately operated, ensuring consistent stewardship and vision. Residents can take part as much or as little as they like — from employment to produce shares, or simply enjoying the view.

The ideal neighbours at sunrise are doers, not dreamers.

Sunrise is for people who want more than a transaction or a lifestyle label. It’s for families and individuals ready to root themselves in the land, build a home, and contribute to a place that lasts. We’re not a commune, nor are we a place for real estate speculation or investment. This is for people who value independence, ownership, and stewardship — neighbours who care about land and the lives they’re building on it.

The ideal neighbours at sunrise are income-producing families, young adults and retirees who value nature, agrarian lifestyle, practicality and a grounded lifestyle. Sunrise does offer an unique lifestyle, but not alternative, communal living. Here, you can build your home, tend your land, and be part of a small, thoughtful community on your own terms.
