In this video I share the process we've gone through as we built an eco village. A couple of years ago I embarked on an exiting journey with 8 other friends from the community: to put the knowledge of community life and eco building into practice and built an eco village. The video shows where we are now, 1 year into the process of building, and only a couple of weeks from being able to move in (fingers crossed!). This video is for people who are interested in intentional living, eco villages and are curious about how a process of envisioning and creating an eco village can look like. Bare in mind that there's still a lot to do and even after moving in we will continue to work on these projects for some time!

This is how I grew up with my family. Then I lost my Dad and began eating outa control. My perfect Mom sent me to the fat farm aka wellness retreats. I realized I had met my new family. People who were brought up in a big loving family are blessed. Its all about family aka community aka love ❤❤❤ I love what you have done. So well done!!!!!!!

thank you for your story and your words 😍

Love the concept, I think the issues in most villages have always been the possible power plays that come with leadership and govt , I am curious to see how this develops over the years. I wish you great success.

@celastrinarebecka Год назад

Thank you so much! Yes I agree, this is something that we've kept in mind and that's why it's important that everyone owns an equal part and that leadership is rotating as a role within the group. Thank you again :)

Thank you so much! Yes, it's really a vision to create a new way to live in society 🙂

Great. Well done and lovely to see. I live in a community space in New Zealand called Wilderland that has been going for 60 years. I’m wondering if you could do a video about the process you went through with the design and dealing with the council and the builders? Thansk

I’m really wondering what part of this development is “eco”. It looks like the forest was dug up to create this space. It seems like the houses are conventional construction using cement for the foundation, lot’s of windows, basically a middle class Western lifestyle. Sure, there’s more people living in each which saves materials and energy. But otherwise the discussion seems to be human centric…community, houses, amphitheater, log cabins. What part of the planning incorporates care for the Mother Earth community? For the mountain, insects, animals, trees, plants?

Hello Rebecka, In 2017, I embraced upon a failed experience in California to build a communal living sanctuary. For may reasons that experiment didn't work out, but I learnt a lot. At the time I did not know about the concept of eco villages. My research and new enthusiasm brought me to Italy this summer. I've visited 2 eco villages so far and would like to ultimately visit yours too. Can I contact you directly to ask some questions about the process of establishing a new eco village? My questions include: How to chose a property, regulatory issues to be mindful, legal structure of an eco village. the economics of building and maintaining an eco village... I would be very grateful if I could have a discussion. Warm regards, AA

Hello! Wow, ok, yes of course you can DM me personally on my instagram (you find the link on the cover here on youtube)! Hope to hear from you soon 🙂

Perhaps you are familiar with Torri Superiore I was affiliated with this community and lived there for a time in the early 90’s I decided this type of community was too exclusive and claustrophobic so I decided to no longer live there but I visit as I live in a small Italian village nearby

@ribbonwing Год назад

6:58: What do you mean "not accepted by the commune"? Like, the other people you were building the houses with, or the wider community around the area from the ecovillage, or the external state regulatory structure, or...?

@nicolo3874 6 месяцев назад

"Comune" in Italy is essentially a town, so she is referring to the building rules and guidelines that must be followed in order for it to be legal

Doesn't a "new" eco village kinda defeat the purpose?

@celastrinarebecka Год назад

I believe it's a good thing to start experimenting with new ways of living together and to create villages and spaces with low ecological footprint and energetic maintenance, it's an inspiration of how to live together in the future 😊

*_It all came about after a project I worked on to design a green subdivision with many others. I thought I could do more and started gathering info. That was when G+ was still invite only. A village is a 50 million dollar undertaken. Then broke it down to a what I call Dartanyan’s Restaurant & Farm but again that was 5 million dollar undertaken. So I decided trying a homeless shelter with my knowledge._* *1.9848 acre per person living in a sustainable village (234 people [35% are child under the age 12] and 464.4432 acres for the village)* 80% crafted, made and grown in said village And 20% are raw materials, food not grown, medical equipment/supplies, electronics and etc. - 0.6250 acre of farmland/person (146.2500ac) - 0.0892 acre of farmland products to be sold/person (20.8728ac) - 0.2321 acre of living area/person (54.3114ac) - 0.0214 acre of wine vineyards/person (5.0076ac) - 0.0714 acre of ponds/person (16.7076ac) - 0.1069 acre of coffee/person or 3,456 trees (25.0146ac) [555 trees/2.4711 acres or 1 Hectare] - 0.0071 acre of teas/person (1.6614ac) - 0.0142 acre of herbs/person (3.3228ac) - 0.1428 acre of schools/person (33.4152ac) - 0.2142 acre of park & wildlife/person (50.1228ac) - 0.1428 acre of village square/person (33.4152ac) - 0.1785 acre of livestock/person (41.7690ac) - 0.1392 acre of roads & etc/person (32.5728ac)

Side Note: 2 Water Buffalo - Water buffalo produce half of the milk consumed in India. Ghee, a kind of liquid butter, is made from water buffalo milk. Goat - Some people find goat’s milk easier to digest than cow’s milk. Fat globules in goat’s milk are smaller than in cow’s milk. Reindeer - The fat content of reindeer milk is 22%, six times as much as cow’s milk. It is the only source of milk for Laplanders in northern Scandinavia, because no other dairy animal can survive in such a cold, hostile environment. It takes two people to milk a reindeer - one to do the milking and the other to hold the reindeer’s horns. Horse - Over 700 years ago, Mongolian warriors made a dried-out concentrated paste from horse milk. When they were on the march, they added it to water and drank it. In southeastern Russia, people use horse milk to make a slightly alcoholic drink called kumiss. Sheep - Milk from sheep has twice the fat content of cow’s milk. Sheep milk is used to make French Roquefort and chevre cheeses. Camel - In the hot desert, camel milk lasts longer than other types of milk. It can last for seven days at 86 degrees Fahrenheit (30 degrees Celsius), and will last for three months when properly refrigerated. Yak - In the cold mountains of Tibet, people make yak butter tea. It tastes like a salty, creamy soup that has been whipped to a froth.”

Side Note: 5 Apprenticeship for a craft starts at age 12 (at age 10 with High Council approval) The Craft Guild Apprenticeship lasted between 5 and 9 years depending on the trade. The Main Craft Guild ensured that their craft or trade effectively become a ‘closed shop’ or monopoly preventing any outside competition. Prices are fixed between members of the Craft Guilds. And the Craft Guilds ensured that high standards of quality are maintained. The number of Craft Guild members are also regulated, allowing a restricted membership in order to ensure that the numbers of Craft Guilds did not exceed the business requirements. -- Side Note: 6 There is a High Council of 13 women (only a mother can hold the 13th seat. be a High Priestess) There is a Lower Council of 6 men and 1 woman (who is the tiebreaker on votes and bring cases to the High Council)
