South Knowlesville Community & The Rural Neighbourhood Project

The Rural Neighbourhood Project is an idea that has come from several years of dreams around rural revitalization and what it could look like in New Brunswick. Beginning in 2006, we have been on a journey to create a rural neighbourhood here in South Knowlesville. Since its inception, many people have lent their hands and hearts to the mission of building practical tools & skills for achieving a sustainable future.
