Founded in 1966, The Fellowship is an intentional community of all ages, centered on the care of the elderly and based on Anthroposophy. About 150 elderly persons, children and coworkers live in a rural setting of farm, woods and orchards. Working and learning together in service to others and in caring for the earth is the central motif of the community life. The Fellowship Community operates the Duryea farm, a mixed vegetable production which also includes an apple orchard, dairy herd and on-farm dairy and collaborates with The Pfeiffer Center on The Outdoor Lesson.

The Hungry Hollow Co-op Natural Foods Market was established in 1973 as a buying club by parents at Green Meadow Waldorf School. For over 20 years it was nestled in the Threefold community serving a small, committed group of members. In 1993 the Co-op moved to its present location and has become the local “corner grocery store,” open to the public seven days a week. The Co-op hosts educational workshops, seeks to develop sources for local and Biodynamically grown produce, and strives to conduct business in an environmentally and socially responsible manner.

A non-competitive, nature oriented summer camp for boys and girls ages 4-14. The joy, magic and wonder of reconnecting with our earth are inherent in all of its activities, be they games, gardening, hiking, camping, archery, swim instruction, canoeing, cooking, storytelling, earth art, nature explorations, animal care, music, drama and more. Director Ed Bieber, trained as a biologist, is a leader in environmental education in the Threefold community and beyond.

Members of the Threefold Community have been working with Rudolf Steiner’s four Mystery Dramas since the 1950s. This work has always been directed by people trained in Rudolf and Marie Steiner’s art of Creative Speech, using amateur actors. Barbara Renold took up the work in 1987; most recently, she and her troupe of 17 players presented the first seven scenes of The Portal of Initiation in April 2007, and the concluding four scenes in April 2008. More productions are planned for 2009 and beyond.
