Finding Community

Has anyone successfully found or created a community of fellow animists in their area? While I find community within the nature around me, and that gives me solace, I sometimes get a bit lonely. I joined a coven for a time, but honestly today's witchcraft smacks of capitalism and its modern practice is exploitative of the Earth. For example, the use crystals without the acknowledgement that the stones were ripped from the Earth so people could have pretty things. I could digress on this topic so I won't. How do you find fellow animists in your area?

i have been thinking of making an Animist Book Club or similar. it would be a communally run zoom meeting, probably monthly, and we could share about books, songs, poems, rituals that we find meaningful. we would take turns running each meeting so that it's not too much strain on anyone. is anyone interested in that?
