What we do

Michigan Ecovillage is located in Southeastern Michigan and is an intergenerational, live-work community in the making. We are dedicated to mutual support in living holistically within a sustainable social environment and community whilst striving to live in harmony with our ecosystem.
The community is integrated with a wellness center, an organic farm, has Consumer and Worker Co-ops as well as US DOL Registered Apprenticeships to deliver caring services to seniors, young families and children, and demonstrates and provides educational programming on Climate Change mitigation, adaptation and migration strategies.
The overall mission is to create a world we want to thrive in by providing a supportive, culturally inclusive, aesthetically stimulating environment in which to optimise personal wellness.

BioconstrucciĂłn de TALLER con carpinterĂ­a de armar

La Escuela de BioconstrucciĂłn Los Guindales propone un aprendizaje practico de bioconstrucciĂłn durante todo el año, en la finca de la ecoaldea Los Guindales (AlgatocĂ­n – Málaga). Para mejorar las instalaciones del proyecto, vamos a construir un taller de carpinterĂ­a. 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 haciĂ©ndoles encajes tradicionales, a montar y a levantar los cinco pĂłrticos previstos. Vamos a seguir la misma organizaciĂłn 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/ AquĂ­ somos un equipo fijo de cuatro personas llevando la escuela. Siembre habrán un mĂ­nimo de dos personas con experiencia para llevar el taller del mes de agosto. TenĂ©is a disposiciĂłn un terreno grande para poner tiendas de campana, tambiĂ©n hay una yurta segĂşn las disponibilidades. Pedimos una aportaciĂłn 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 hacĂ©rnosla saber. Pueden contactarnos a travĂ©s de: bi*************************@***il.com
