Findhorn: A New Age intentional community on the Moray Firth in
Scotland established in 1962
by Peter and Eileen Caddy and Dorothy Maclean in a trailer park near the fishing village of Findhorn. Anecdotal
accounts of the 1960s and ‘70s told of remarkable gardens producing 40-pound cabbages, 60-pound broccoli plants,
8-foot delphiniums, and roses blooming in nothing but sand and snow. Love and communication with Nature Spirits
or “devas” were credited with the horticultural miracles. The community attracted spiritual seekers from all
over the world. In the 1980s residents established educational programs and began planning an Eco-Village based
on principles of sustainability, renewable energy, and harmony with natural systems. The Findhorn Foundation
promotes values of spirituality, ecology, and community summed up by the inspiration, “Work is love in action.”
According to former Findhorn resident David Spangler, “You are either manufacturing darkness through your own
inner states of anxiety and fear and separation, or you are creating light and revelation through your
abandonment of those past states and your attunement to new ones.”
