What we do

Although we don’t have land or a set date yet, we want to create a unique space near Barcelona.
Initially, we plan to have accommodation in RVs (your own). The land will be in the province of Barcelona, providing a unique experience combining country living with the possibility of visiting the city. We haven’t bought it yet.
You can come with a tent (I have two), but it’s not a good idea if the project starts around these dates.
We need volunteers, even in the kitchen! While I can cook, I’m open to vegetarian or vegan suggestions benefiting everyone. We’ll discuss meals together, and I’ll cover general expenses, except for specific needs.
I outline our project, including domes, green areas, gardens, sustainable water and electricity systems, and more. Ideas and collaboration are welcome. The essence is an open, respectful, emotionally supportive space.
– Camping or parking area.
– Relaxation area for everyone.
– Three domes (2x50m² + 1x30m²).
– Two fences (Animal protection).
– Three circular trenches around the domes to prevent flooding and collect water.
– Two tanks for collecting water.
– Solar panels (and/or windmills if found).
– Two garden areas.
– A pond or place where purified water arrives and follows its cycle.
– Installation of electricity and water.
– Purifying filters before water reaches homes and, later, for gray water. Made of natural materials, purifying and aromatic plants.
– Two garden spaces.
– Three more trenches, carrying rainwater from the domes to the pond, with an influent where gray water will pass and filter before reaching the flow.
– Natural lining (adobe and stones) for the trenches.
– The water meeting space. It could be used for irrigation and enriching more areas.
This is the “guide project.” From here, ideas and all types of collaboration are accepted. Except for my mother’s area (…so on…)

From The Ground Up: Ecovillage Design Education

From The Ground Up is a 7-day residential Mini Ecovillage Design Education (EDE) at Entelechy, a 13.5-acre intentional community on Salt Spring Island, British Columbia, Canada. August 9–15, 2026. The course follows the Gaia Education EDE framework, covering four dimensions of sustainability: Ecological – Food systems, natural building, energy and water, appropriate technology. Social – Community governance, communication, conflict resolution, collective decision-making. Economic – Alternative economics, cooperative structures, local currencies, social enterprise. Worldview – The values, beliefs, and cultural frameworks that underlie sustainable community – why people want to live this way, and what has to shift for it to last. The course is facilitated by a graduate of both the full EDE and the Gaia Education Training of Trainers programme. It takes place at a working ecovillage where residents live what they teach. Participants stay on-site for the week in wall tents or camping. Communal meals sourced from local Salt Spring farms and Entelechy’s gardens are included. This course is for anyone interested in designing, joining, or strengthening sustainable communities — whether you’re starting from scratch, already involved in a project, or looking to go deeper than a Permaculture Design Course. Up to 22 spots. Application-based enrollment. Early bird: $950 CAD (before June 15, 2026) Regular: $1,149 CAD Payment plans, group discounts, and work-trade spots available. If interested, we invite you to apply here: https://www.entelechysaltspring.ca/ecovillage-design Salt Spring Island is accessible by BC Ferries from Tsawwassen (Metro Vancouver), Swartz Bay (Greater Victoria), and Crofton (mid-Vancouver Island).
