INTERNATIONAL, founded in 1974, is a village-based international development
agency. The village is called The Farm, a cooperative, intentional community
located on 1750 community-owned acres in Tennessee. The Farm was settled
by 250 young hippie pioneers in 1971 and grew to over 1500 inhabitants at
its peak population in the early 1980's.
Believing that all life is connected and how we live affects the world, Plenty's founders were committed to creating an organization to help protect and share the world's abundance and knowledge for the benefit of all people. This broad purpose has been channeled into priorities and an evolving philosophy of aid and development as we have gained experience. Today, Plenty's focus is on Indigenous People, youth, women, and the environment. In practical terms, this translates into sustainable development to promote local self-sufficiency in economically disadvantaged or otherwise threatened communities. Over it's 27-year history Plenty has helped to implement projects in fifteen countries on four continents. Click here for more info on Plenty history or current projects.

Plenty publishes a quarterly "Bulletin," and is supported by tax-deductible contributions deriving from 3,500-member/donors along with grants received from foundations, corporations, religious organizations or other funding agencies. Donations to Plenty are tax-deductible and greatly appreciated.
