About [Edit]
PLENTY INTERNATIONAL, founded in 1974, is a village-based international development agency. The village is called The Farm, a cooperative, intentional community located on 1750 community-owned acres in Tennessee. The Farm was settled by 250 young hippie pioneers in 1971 and grew to over 1500 inhabitants at its peak population in the early 1980`s.
Believing that all life is connected and how we live affects the world, Plenty`s founders were committed to creating an organization to help protect and share the world`s abundance and knowledge for the benefit of all people. This broad purpose has been channeled into priorities and an evolving philosophy of aid and development as we have gained experience. Today, Plenty`s focus is on Indigenous People, youth, women, and the environment. In practical terms, this translates into sustainable development to promote local self-sufficiency in economically disadvantaged or otherwise threatened communities. Over it`s 27-year history Plenty has helped to implement projects in fifteen countries on four continents. Click here for more info on Plenty history or current projects.
Plenty is a tool for people wanting to help. Creating a better world for our children`s children will require an ever greater level of cooperation across cultures and generations and the understanding that even one person can make a real difference. Plenty exists to promote and implement that heartfelt, people-to-people cooperation and understanding...building a network of friends around the world.
