What we do

Human activity on the Earth has become ecologically unsustainable and we are overexploiting our planet: all this has been proven by the studies conducted by the Global Footprint Network, which argues that today humanity uses the equivalent of 1.75 planets Earth to sustain our life (to use materials, build infrastructures and dismiss waste). In other words, WE ARE SIMPLY ABSORBING MORE SOURCES THAN THOSE THE EARTH CAN ANNUALLY REGENERATE. I was thinking on these lines for years and finally I would like to create or in other words to develop a real ‘zero-miles agriculture,’ through the establishment of some Eco Villages/communities which surround the urban centers.
At KANCHI Eco Village, we ensure
REDUCE our consumption of natural resources as much as possible
RESTORE the eco system in its place by keeping our environment in such a way that all living and nonliving organisms connects with each other
REPEAT the above two rules again and again at KANCHI Eco Village, in order to return the resources to Mother Nature of what we consume during our life in this earth.
We provide fully furnished rental cottages on monthly basis to the senior citizens along with 3 times meals and refreshments (100% organic). You simply walk in with your dresses and stay at a comfort of a Resort for your rest of the life. Alternatively those who are interested to buy, you have an option to buy the cottages and register on your name.
We have cottages varying between 176 sft & 320 sft, which is sufficient to accommodate a couple of senior citizens. Each cottage will have a living and Bedroom with attached Bathroom and Toilets. All cottages are built in a 400 sft land and surrounded by beautiful landscaping to add an excellent aesthetic look.

Those who would like to invest at Kanchi Eco Village with assured returns can buy a cottage of their interest (whether 176 sft or 320 sft) along with a land space of 400 sft, which will be registered in their name. Either they can rent it out to the prospective tenants or they can use for their week end stay, if they are located in Chennai and its surrounding area. In case if they are interested to rent it out, we will identify the right tenant for you.

Bioconstrucción de TALLER con carpintería de armar

La Escuela de Bioconstrucción Los Guindales propone un aprendizaje practico de bioconstrucción durante todo el año, en la finca de la ecoaldea Los Guindales (Algatocín – Málaga). Para mejorar las instalaciones del proyecto, vamos a construir un taller de carpintería. Durante el mes de agosto, lanzamos un llamamiento excepcional para poder avanzar la armadura con madera redonda. Se van a cuadrar troncos, a trazar en el suelo las varias piezas para luego trazar en las piezas mismas las cotas importantes, a cortar las piezas haciéndoles encajes tradicionales, a montar y a levantar los cinco pórticos previstos. Vamos a seguir la misma organización grupal que solemos tener ; hacemos turnos diarios de cocina, trabajamos de las 8h a las 10h, desayunamos hasta las 11h, y seguimos luego hasta el almuerzo a las 14h. Por la tarde seguiremos trabajando unas dos horas. Paralelamente, estamos cuidando una huerta y tres cabras. Para mas info sobre nuestra rutina y condiciones os dejo el enlace a seguir. https://escueladebioconstruccionlosguindales.wordpress.com/formacion/ Aquí somos un equipo fijo de cuatro personas llevando la escuela. Siembre habrán un mínimo de dos personas con experiencia para llevar el taller del mes de agosto. Tenéis a disposición un terreno grande para poner tiendas de campana, también hay una yurta según las disponibilidades. Pedimos una aportación de 120 euros para el mes entero o 70 euros para dos semanas para cubrir los gastos de comida. Caso tengan cualquier duda, no hesiten en hacérnosla saber. Pueden contactarnos a través de: bi*************************@***il.com
