Spiral Living Center is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit
organization serving the Illinois Valley since 2006. The Spiral Living Center’s
mission is to create a sustainable, self-sufficient community in the Illinois
Valley, according to Executive Director Debbie Lukas. In order to achieve this
overall goal, they work to help all who live in the Illinois Valley to secure
the basic necessities such as food, water, shelter, transportation and health
care.
Says Lukas, “From a
practical point of view we are a community self-help group, trying to involve
everyone in securing these things for themselves from within the Illinois
Valley.”
The group relies on volunteers, who enthusiastically
share their skills as class instructors, project leaders and helpers at a
variety of workshops, presentations, and skill-sharing demonstrations featuring
rural living skills. Past programs have covered harvesting and preparing wild
edibles, strawbale construction, raising goats and chickens, gardening, bicycle
repair, and off-the grid power systems. Projects include the IV Food Coalition,
the Gleaning Project, Illinois Valley Farm and Garden Festival, the Biochar
Project, IV Bikespace, Selma Skillshare, Takilma Tool Library and the Spiral
Living Library. Board members will be on hand at the dinner to discuss Spiral
Living Center’s programs and projects.
