What we do

Myriad Village is a place of vision and of growth. This land is 320 acres, only 1 hour from Winnipeg, 20 minutes west of Gimli, and within walking distance to Dennis Lake.
This location is well suited to avoid any major floods. There is approximately 60 acres of forested land including oak bluffs and poplar stands; mixed in the landscape are vast hazel standings and chains of wetlands and willow. Boulders piled up by farmers of the past make playful piles of opportunity, while the neighbours cattle left large dumps to avoid stepping in. That is not to say our property is not a vastly beautiful place teaming with life. We spotted our neighbor the beaver, with an impressive den in the middle of the pond. Falcons screeching their ancient song, and the tracks of elk, coyotes and grouse. Dennis Lake is teaming with bird life, from red-winged blackbirds to cranes. Our human activities hope to harmoniously meld with the wildife.
We have taken minutes at each of our meetings dating back to March 2015 and after our first year of membership in 2016, we passed our foundational by-laws. Since then we have begun building foundations such as composting, biodynamic organic gardens, humanure outhouse, solar systems, an earthship home, material storage, swimming hole, & a waterhouse for laundry and to pump from the well.
As a marketing co-op, members have individual businesses, some of which are affiliated with the land. We are from all walks of life, including singles & families with kids. We are associated with Sustainable Building MB & the Community Economic Development Network.

Want to connect with and support sustainable projects in Latin America? CASA Perú is excited to announce the “ENIS”, Encuentro Nacional de Iniciativas Sostenibles (12/13/09/2026), an upcoming gathering of intentional communities and regenerative initiatives in Oxapampa, Peru’s altitude jungle, 10h from Lima.  It’s a preliminary for the biennially CASA Latina’s meeting, the “ECCO 2027”, Encuentro Continental de Comunidades (27/05-3/06/2027). We expect 180 participants from 15 different nationalities from South America. We also connect with “Raices y Alas”, the NextGEN meeting (11-18/05/2027, Tarapoto, Perú), “only” 16h far from Oxapampa. So you’re very welcome to participate and support both events. We’ll be meeting at San Jorge’s School and surroundings (ecovillage Tierra de Bosques), in Gramazu, 40’ from Oxapampa city, to share workshops, concerts, bio-market and construction. Our main construction goal in 2026 September: a huge kitchen stove and ecological showers/toilets to be ready for you in 2027. Thanks for support ! Those events (both ENIS and ECCO) are titled “Oñets Awathotheñ” : “Ancestral River” in the Yanesha language. We explain why in CASA Latina’s web (when I discover it, I feel SO blessed !). We have the honor to receive the Yanesha Native Community (mainly from Satchopen, 15’ from us) and they’ll led art, music, dance, language, handcrafts, legends and ceremonies. We’ll also open workshops about the 5 dimensions of regeneration with local and international facilitators: Social : participative governance, community-building, egalitarian communities, etc. Ecological: waste management, conscious diet, agro-forestry, vermicompost, etc. Cultural : art-therapy,  Economical: local currencies, digital no speculative money Whole System: dynamics of popular education to understand global interdependencies, presentation of Gaia Union Ecosystem We hope the event will create a stronger regional network in Peru ahead of GEN’s ECCO 2027, which will bring together intentional, native and “campesinas” communities and regenerative leaders from across the world. If you’d like to attend, tickets are available at this link. We’re also seeking volunteers, who can attend at a reduced cost in exchange for help and support from early September. To apply to volunteer, email us. If you’d like to give a talk or offer a workshop, we still have a couple of places available. Please fill up the form (for ENIS 2026). For ECCO 2027, more info coming soon here. Support us through our crowdfunding campaign. Thanks and blessings to all our donators. Your support allow us to build much more than a kitchen. Any donations beyond this goal will support ECCO 2027, to allow the participation of more native leaders from all the peruvian jungle (and further). Hoping to see you in Oxapampa! CASA Peru and CASA Latina Ticket Price for ENIS: S./150 to S/.350 (€40 to €90)* *Our sliding-scale pricing lets you pay what you can. The minimum covers your food and transportation, while higher contributions help subsidize participation for others.
