What we do

We are a growing community of like-minded people cooperating to live & prosper as caring neighbors & mindful stewards. We practice sustainable off-grid energy, recycling/upcycling, & highly-localized self-sufficient living with low-input land-based production of life essentials.
Environmental sustainability
We manage natural resources responsibly to meet current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own. We protect the environment by mitigating harmful behavior, conserving resources, & maintaining ecological balance. We repair the environment through life-affirming & regenerative actions by avoiding synthetics & GMOs, reducing waste/pollution, utilizing off-grid renewable energy, restoring fertility & water resources, sowing seeds, increasing biodiversity, & preserving the natural order & its abundance. We ascribe to wisely guiding nature rather than leaving it to itself. We are the potential answer rather than merely the current problem.
Economic sustainability
Current & future well-being is assured without harming the environment or each other. A strong, resilient, & highly localized economy is empowered by a greatly reduced reliance on fiat currencies & instead an interdependence on “local first” production & exchange. Entrepreneurship, bartering, voluntary gifting/sharing of resources, silver coin currency, & limited cash exchange foster stable long-term growth and inflation-resistant economic opportunity.
Cultural sustainability
We seek to establish our identity, values, systems, & solutions. This heritage of life-affirming traditions, knowledge, & wisdom teach current & future generations be resilient to new & long-standing challenges.
Social sustainability
We strive to improve our neighborhood by focusing on personal responsibility, cooperative effort, individual liberty, education, & effective health choices to bring about life, peace, and prosperity. We hope to show a working model to inspire by example.

Sogutlucesme Cad. No: 196/3 Detailed info (Turkish): http://yeryuzudernegi.org/projedetay.php?id=51 Coordinators: SULE GONULSUZ sulegonulsuz@hotmail.com NURIYE KAYALI kayalinuriye@gmail.com We use local seeds and we provided those seeds from people who make organical farming. After we procure those seeds, we put them on a cycle. We organized “Seed Exchange Days”, where people could meet and exchange their seeds, their knowledge and experiences. We tried to take it one step further and we are trying to categorize the seeds. For example, -there is a bean seed. But which type of bean seed is it? Or we try to categorize the seeds according to their durabilty in which city they could grow. We believe that all the seeds in the World are people’s seeds and we want to share them with everyone.

Ecotratamiento de Aguas Residuales

Agua es vida, el recurso más importante de todos. Desde la perspectiva de Sunseed como un centro educativo sobre la vida de bajo impacto nos gustarĂ­a ofrecerles un curso para aprender, profundizar e intercambiar los conocimientos teĂłricos y prácticos sobre el cuidado de agua. El curso va a estar enfocado principalmente en el tema de saneamiento ecolĂłgico de aguas residuales, cubriendo a la vez los aspectos teĂłricos de potabilizaciĂłn de agua y aprovechamiento de agua lluvia. Vamos a aprender como diseñar y construir un sistema completo de tratamiento de aguas grises a travĂ©s de la construcciĂłn de humedales artificiales de flujo subsuperficial, en cuales se trata de la utilizaciĂłn de plantas acuáticas para depurar las aguas residuales que han tenido un tratamiento primario. Los humedales artificiales son canales de gravilla sembrados con las plantas depuradoras, han sido aplicadas y debidamente reguladas en varios paĂ­ses de Europa y ofrecen una alternativa sana y segura tanto para autogestionar los recursos de agua como poder reutilizar agua tratada en un hogar. Usando herramientas como power point, videos y charlas vamos a aprender sobre el diseño y aspectos claves para tener en cuenta construyendo nuestro sistema casero. En tiempo libre vamos a divertirnos con juegos, mĂşsica y baños en una poza cercana. El curso va a estar dividido en partes teĂłricas y prácticas. La parte práctica va a incluir – Diseño de un sistema completo de tratamiento de aguas residuales – las tuberĂ­as, tratamiento primario (trampas de grasa y tanques sĂ©pticos), tratamiento secundario (Humedales Artificiales de Flujo Subsuperficial), riego con aguas grises. – ConstrucciĂłn de una trampa de grasa como el tratamiento primario – PreparaciĂłn de un humedal artificial de flujo horizontal – impermeabilizaciĂłn y conexiones. Parte teĂłrica va a cubrir la introducciĂłn a la potabilizaciĂłn de agua y aprovechamiento de agua lluvia. Para mejorar nuestra experiencia educativa vamos a definir los aspec
