Picture of the House when I first Purchase It

Lately I have been working on the idea of Co-Housing and Intentional Community with the thought of Turning the House here, as Citizens of Planet Earth Academy into the first 'leg' of this journey to self sufficent living. When the roommates were here I jokingly called the house the commune, as that is the feel I wanted to have present. Now I have decided that I am going to actively turn the house into a stepping stone to ''the Cabin in the Woods'' dream. It really has always been the idea for when I purchased the home originally in 1998 with my Ex, and best friend Ricky we had already lived almost communally for six years prior to buying this home. Through the years I have held onto the dream of making this into a Suburban Commune of sorts, wanting to Live more simple and self sufficent while still participating in society. I own a 1/2 acre that I ALONE have RECLAIMED for the EARTH and actively have sought the Energies of Deva's, Elementals, and Power Allies of all types to Come and Bless this small piece of Earth. My Sacred Circle and Labyrinth are part of the idea to Anchor a TRANSFORMATIONAL Energy here in Charlotte that speaks to the need to live with Nature, not destroy it.
It has been a battle of many parts of my self, and now I am at the point that I know I cannot, nor do I want to do this alone. I need Co Creators in this change to what may soon be a norm with life after PEAK OIL on the horizon. My survival instincts and my Pagan outlook color this in a fashion that makes it hard for me to just advertise for the run of the mill Roommate.
So, Being that I trust many/most if not all of you my friends here in BlogLand, I am asking for advice.
How do I find the kind of people who wish to Live together towards a goal of One Day having the best of both worlds. #1: a Home here in the City,,, but living a more simplified/ self sufficent lifestyle,, and #2: Seeking, finding, and purchasing some rural/remote land for a retreat Homestead that will blossom into the Permanant site of Citizens of Planet Earth Academy?
This is not as simple as I thought because most people are so geared to the CONSUMER LIFE that is almost impossible to drag them away from devouring the Earth, consciously or Unconsciously.
So,,, this is a fast post just to put my idea on the burner,,,
any thoughts/ ideas on how to bring this to fruition will be appreciated very much.
