Community could be likened to the concept of the body of Christ.... some are the hands, some the eyes, some the feet.

Community has specialized functions or giftings and callings.

I have several older men that are awesome at welding. We've been able to make custom garden tools, redo trailers, even make custom playground sets for families.

Others in the community know electrical, home birthing midwifery, herbalistic and homeopathic, etc.
