Dandelion officially formed with its group of 5 founding member in January 1975 when their first newsletter was published, although three attended at Communities Conference at Twin Oaks Community in September 1974, and had been talking community before that. They incorporated in Ontario as a non-share-capital cooperative “Dandelion Community Cooperative” in March when they were also looking for land and bought the farm in March.

Dandelion was an intentional community inspired by B.F. Skinner's Utopian novel, "Walden Two." They lived communally on 50 acres in southeastern Ontario, sharing goods, income and expenses, caring for each other, and working to create a cooperative, non-violent, egalitarian and joyful way of life, in harmony with the natural environment.

They supported the community through their own industries, including a tinnery which recycles tin cans into candle holders, plant holders, lamps, and other items. They also made hand-woven rope chairs, and tried to grow their own food, service their own equipment, build their own buildings and heat them with wood grown from the land. Work was shared through a labor credit system designed to distribute it as equally as possible and maximize the enjoyable work of each member.

In 2011 Janice McAlpine and Renée van Weringh proposed that they work with Queen's University Archives to establish and develop an archival collection pertaining to the Kingston Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer 2 Spirited community. Documentation of gay and lesbian life has been scant. Lesbians and gay men have often destroyed or concealed records of same-sex relationships, and when they have not, family and society at large have frequently stepped in posthumously to expunge the evidence. The resulting dearth of information about queer lives has made growing up and coming out difficult for the LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, transsexual, two-spirited, and queer) contingent of each generation.
This is not a recent problem or a local one, but it is one with local implications: although some large centres have lesbian and gay archives, such as Toronto’s Lesbian and Gay Archives, the regional record of gay and lesbian life in Canada is almost nonexistent.
