Becoming a Part of Our Ecovillage: A Path to Permanent Residency

Welcome to Our Ecovillage

Visiting us is the first step toward becoming a cherished member of our vibrant ecovillage community. Nestled in a serene 70-ha area, our ecovillage is designed to foster sustainable living, collaboration, and harmonious interactions with nature. Families seeking to make this peaceful place their permanent home will find that the journey involves contributing to a cooperative share.

Understanding Cooperative Shares

To become a permanent resident in our ecovillage, families must make sustained monthly payments calculated by dividing the total project cost by the number of families involved. This approach not only ensures that each family has an equitable stake in the community, but it also aids in the collective ownership model we aspire to achieve. Initially, the land remains privately owned, but it is our goal to transition to a housing cooperative that will manage the land and residences once the financial commitments are fulfilled. This transition symbolizes our commitment to unity and shared purpose.

Temporary Residency and Visitor Participation

For those who wish to experience our ecovillage without immediate commitment, we offer an exciting opportunity for temporary residency. Visitors can share apartments at a reduced cost, allowing them to immerse themselves in our lifestyle while still contributing to the community. This arrangement not only makes it financially accessible but also encourages active participation in decision-making processes. Visitors are welcome to stay by contributing work, local currency, or euros, which reinforces the spirit of cooperation and communal living.

Moreover, those who engage in temporary residency will gain access to the wealth of knowledge generated within the ecovillage. This invaluable experience allows individuals and families to learn firsthand about sustainable practices, cooperative governance, and self-sufficiency. We invite everyone to come and explore the principles that guide our community, encouraging a meaningful exchange of ideas and practices.

In conclusion, whether you're considering permanent residency or simply wish to visit and participate, our ecovillage warmly welcomes you. Your journey toward sustainable living, shared ownership, and community collaboration starts with the choice to engage with us. Together, we can foster a future that honors nature, nurtures relationships, and inspires a collective vision of harmonious living.
