Our community forms an ‘ecosystem’ of many different organisations, of increasing complexity – from family to group to community; from one original organisation to the many that make up the Community today. Here are their stories.
The history of any individual or organisation that is on the edge of turning 50 is bound to a complex and many-tiered story. The history of the Findhorn Foundation is definitely that!!

From 1977 the Findhorn Foundation (FF) held 'Orientation Programmes' to introduce new members to the Mystery School, our community culture and the organisational structures of the charity.
