What we do

A community of like-minded people who decided to move from cities to the countryside and have a sustainable way of life
Zeleni Kruchi ecovillage is an association of eco-homestead owners established on the territory of several neighboring villages in the south of Kyiv region. The basic specialization of the ecovillage is housekeeping and growing food using eco-technologies, as well as organizing and conducting educational and cultural events. Our goal is to be successful, happy and self-realized while living in a community.
Our mission: To manage the land, live in abundance and prosperity through harmonious interaction with each other and with nature, and to share this experience with others.
Our vision: A large, prosperous, eco-conscious community that is developing sustainably, where life is vibrant, where events take place, where good relations between people and effective ways of horizontal interaction are built.
Our values:
– Respect for nature
– Self-sufficiency and sustainability
– Mutual respect, trust, support and responsibility
– Effective communication, empathy, communication and exchange of experience
– Mutual assistance, active life position and positive thinking
– Strong family relationships and harmonious upbringing of children
– Physical, psychological, social and spiritual health
– Community leisure to increase joy in life
The ecovillage was founded in 2012. It is located in a picturesque area.
The ecovillage has infrastructure for events for up to 30 people. There is a common land that is a certified carbon farm.
Spirituality: individual.
The community has its own part-time kindergarten.
Since 2022, Zeleni Kruchi has continued to grow despite living under the constant threat of war, with drones regularly flying overhead. Despite the challenges, the community is a home place that gives the feeling of safety, belonging and relative stability to its members.
