Welcome to Quarry Hill's Blog!
Quarry Hill Creative Center in Rochester, VT, founded 1946 by Barbara and Irving Fiske, is Vermont's oldest alternative community and at one time was probably also its largest. In the 60s -80s, as many as 90 people lived here.
It was and is visited each year, often in summer (but in every season, really) by visitors from all over the world.
We welcome interesting and creative people who are peaceful, bring no weapons, don't believe in hitting children or killing animals, and enjoy the beauty of Vermont and of themselves.
Most of us do not adhere to any particular dogma or religion, though many do find Eastern philosophy closest to our own thought (some of us are also members of the Quakers/Society of Friends).
We value the individual, particularly people who are energetic and have a sense of humor.
Visitors are welcome-- and prospective residents, too. There are some places for rent, others for sale. If interested, get in touch!
And, please follow the Blog and comment whenever you like!

All Night Dance Party now last Sat, in July. Check this site for more info!
Due to a variety of needs and issues, the ANDP and 65th Quarry Hill Anniversary Celebration will be held the last Saturday in July (the 30th) instead of the 1st Sat. in August.
More information will be forthcoming after we have a chance to talk to our Party Consigilere, Katie McCarty, presently in Argentina, I think. I am trying to learn to use Skype so we can communicate with one another.
Thanks for your patience and please hold open that last Sat. in July-- which happens to coincide with one of the rare vacations Brion and I are going to be able to take. It ends that day, though, so we should be able to return the 30th and oversee and assist with the plans for the ANDP.
Get your costumes together, pleaase! This is a BIG day-- QH will be 65 and it's also a special birthday for Joya, but I'll leave that to her, whether she wishes to explain it or not.
Love,
Ladybelle
