Starcross is unique in many ways. In the tradition of visionary and many idealistic communities, it is the most successful ever established in Sonoma County. All of us who have been touched by the Starcross experience have our own stories to tell. Covering Starcross is a unique experience for journalists. They are a reversal of the nonprofit pattern we have become accustomed to.
Nonprofits usually seek out the media.
It was three years after their arrival in Sonoma County that the first story on them appeared. Instead of being hounded by them, we got to know them. We all enjoy covering Starcross, mostly because of brother Toby's sense of humor. What I like most is the absence of ambition or the need to expand. The beauty of Starcross Community is its simplicity.
