What we do

Our world appears to be changing rapidly. Aside from chaotic geopolitics, many scientists see our climate crisis issue remaining unresolved. Concurring with Johan Rockstrom’s planetary boundaries science. Those aware of and perhaps having lived in other eco-villages, and other self-motivated individuals will bring what they learn and know on sustainable living. Learning and individual research is encouraged. An organized members list will be drawn up to become a social media community prior to swarm date. A target date to swarm / congregate in the valley is the spring of 2027. The Creston Valley location has been strategically selected based on local food production, local and provincial politics, a low climate change risk and distance from major urban areas. The town of Creston has a population of about 5000 and the surrounding valley another 10,000. This community proposes to become as a field site for cultural redesign. Creston Valley members will focus on living lifestyles that may be evaluated for research. Our valley has been measured by the Ecological Footprint in a published academic paper. Census villages and the ecological footprint: Alternate data sources, policy analyses, and communication – ScienceDirect, authored by Les W Kuzyk. The location also falls within the Cascadia bioregion and speculated political region which may have future potential.

How to join

You will or will plan to relocate to the Creston Valley, or live through association in another eco-village and target an alternate lifestyle. You will socialize with and/or otherwise engage with other community members, and/or a social media connection with other like-minded persons globally. There will be regular person to person meetings eventually, but also remote digital online communications via social media as it develops. At this time, you are a self-motivated idealist who believes in developing an alternate cultural model. You will figure a lot of things out on your own, and bring what you figure out to the attention of others and the community. If you have an academic interest, you may research, record and publish data to share with the broader cultural redesign community.
