Ilatán is an association and a group of people that manages a forested area on the mountains of Northern Tenerife. Here we work on regenerating the surrounding ecosystem, producing food, and living in a joyful and relaxed way. There is also space for more people to join us in sharing and enjoying this place.
Our work in this ecosystem started only 5 years ago, which we have devoted to regenerating our environment and adapting to it, slowly establishing a food forest that integrates both edible and native trees – with a few hundred already planted and thousands more growing in our nursery – to complete the reforestation of the pace under our care, which is close to a hectare.
The human side of the project is close to a traditional village, where some shared spaces for socializing are available, but most of the time we each live our own lives – knowing the rest are there if we need them. Intimacy, personal space and natural day-to-day communication are priorities for us, rather than planning constant structured meetings and community activities (in pop culture terms, Ilatán looks more like a mountain retreat than a hippie commune). Our long-term vision is for this place to hold a multi-generational extended family, so we are open to receiving people of all ages.
In order to join our community, we invite potential members to read carefully our project website to understand if it’s a suitable place for them. Then you can apply using the form in the website: https://proyecto.ilatan.org/
PLEASE, DO NOT USE THE “CONTACT ECOVILLAGE” BUTTON OR THE E-MAIL We want to know more about you that’s why we ask you to fill up the form.
If we think we can fit we will reply you inviting you to have a videocall so we can have a first contact among all of us.
If we all are willing to continue the process we will take several steps for knowing each other better: few short visits and stayings, from some months to a year coliving and then becoming a member.
