We will play, sing, laugh, learn and work together, creating a deep connection with each other that will organically build our community. The tools needed when coming to participate in this experience are a willing attitude, an inquisitive mind and an open heart.

Laughing Heart Living is located in the Sierra Nevada foothills of CA, along the wild and scenic Yuba River. We are a multi-generational community of 8 ranging in age from 18 months to 67 years. On the farm we grow vegetables, fruits, culinary and medicinal herbs, and flowers.
We are expanding new ideas about land stewardship and healthy living. We seek to express conscious evolution in every aspect of our lives, emphasizing daily spiritual practice, clear and compassionate communication, conscious parenting, and developing harmonious relationships with each other and our environment. Our practice of yoga and meditation helps us to unfold that conscious evolution in all of its expressions.
