This isn’t just a brand — it’s a living, breathing community with a half-century of cooperative values behind every item.
One Of The Oldest Intentional Communities In America
East Wind Community, Inc. has been operated by its profit and expense sharing, volunteer members since 1974 — a half-century of cooperative living, shared purpose, and handcrafted goods.
What East Wind Makes
East Wind Nut Butters
Handcrafted nut butters made by community members — pure, natural, and made with intention.
East Wind Hammocks
Handwoven hammocks crafted by the community — built to last and made with care.
Utopian Rope Sandals
The longest-standing EW product — born from upcycling scrap rope left over from hammock production.
The Story Of Utopian Rope Sandals
Born of a creative idea to upcycle and reuse the scrap rope left over from hammock production, East Winders began a process of trial and error to make something of value from that industry’s waste material. Success was soon achieved — and thanks to the efforts of past and present artisans, Utopian Rope Sandals became the longest-standing product made at East Wind. Sustainability and ingenuity, hand in hand.
“Since 1974, the ever-evolving East Wind Community, Inc. has been operated by its profit and expense sharing, volunteer members — one of the oldest intentional communities in America.”
