Buffalo Commons Village, Northfield MN Bruce Anderson of Sustainable Community Solutions is working with an elderly friend who owns land just outside the Northfield city limits, and wants to see it developed responsibly. Bruce states that their goal is "to develop roughly 21 acres, adjacent to the Northfield city limits) developed responsibly and in as “green” a fashion as possible, with the majority of the land remaining as natural and agricultural land". This may be perfect for those of you wanting a rural setting, but with conveniences nearby. He envisions a large organic garden for the community, and possibly leasing the arable land to an organic farmer. There are plenty of woods and wetlands to also keep nature-lovers happy.
