Earnestpost: In my experience of starting up an off-grid leftist commune, this is what the estimated labor breakdown looked like, averaged out in hours per person per week.
Building things: 5
Food prep and cooking: 4
Doing dishes and other cleanup: 2
Gathering wood and building fires: 1
Gardening and composting: 3
Tending lifestock: 1
Hauling water: 1
Resource runs (dumpsters, stores, local businesses): 2
Making good relations with the neighbors: 2
Sitting in working groups, councils, or assemblies: 2
23 hours a week total, and most of it didn't even feel like work.
