The resources and the percieved disparities between the homsteaders and the hunter/gatherers would need to be managed by the members of the cooperative. The nomads have chosen a preferred lifestyle of fewer material possessions and lighter mobile habitats and ideally would not begrudge the homesteaders who put roots down and build permanent, warmer, more comfortable shelters, especially if the homesteader purchased and owned the land and was “holding space” for his Nomadic brothers and sisters. However if the land was owned by the cooperative and 80% of the resources were being funneled into “castle building” for the homesteaders while the Nomads were always broke, no gasoline or horse feed monies, tattered tents, meager supplies… then the “medicine wheel” would be out of balance and need to be re-balanced.
There is a natural trade-off or a price to pay for everything desirable that we choose in life. Both the homesteader and the Nomads make a trade-off for their desired way of life. The Nomad trades the comforts of Materialism for Freedom, and the Homesteader trades his Freedom for the comforts of material possessions.
I have noticed in my own life that material possessions have a way of taking me prisoner. They consume my resources, my time, freedom, and peace of mind. The more material objects that I “Own” the more work and worry that I invest into acquiring, possessing, protecting from damage and decay, thievery, etc. So instead of me owning them… my material possessions begin to own me. Sometimes I wish that I would sell it all and just travel around the country, exploring and camping for awhile where I like and moving along to someplace new. I am torn between Freedom and the comfort, security of materialism.
I am not a devout christian or a bible thumper but there is wisdom in the bible, and here is one of my favorite verses “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” You might want to substitute Nature for Heaven.
Things have a natural way of balancing themselves. It would be know amongst the Nomads which of the havens were more hospitable, accomodating, balanced, harmonious and they would migrate towards those Havens, and avoid the Havens where unfair disparities existed, and if the diverging havens were privately owned they would fall off of the Hoop, and if the Haven is commnuity owned then Stewardship would need to be changed to bring balance.
Together they could build a Longhouse where the Nomads could live in comfort during their stays at the Haven. On Havens owned by the cooperative, there might be an arrangement of rotating, alternating Land Stewards who would take a break from the rigors of the nomadic lifestyle for 6 months or a year, tending the Haven and assisting the Nomads,and then going back the Hoop and another Nomad would become a land steward for 6 - 12 months. This way there is no individual possession of houses, but a true sharing of both lifeways.
There would be so much to consider and arrange for, in a feasible, workable community cooperative of scattered Rewilding Haven’s and bands of hunter/gatherers.
Another interesting aspect to ponder is what objects the Haven might produce, besides food, to trade or sell for resources needed for the haven, caretakers and Nomads. In 1978 I made my own Tipi (or Teepee) with 100 yards of canvas and a sewing machine, and it made such a beautiful habitat to live in. I especially like the idea of making Tipi’s as habitats on the haven and also for trade. I love the vision of a harmoniouss community living in a large circle of tipi’s around a large central firepit.
For ideas… here are some websites where they make and sell tipi’s
