Initiative group in the process of forming an ecovillage
We envision to create an innovative living and working space for for 30 - 50 households. We are a group of +/- 10 people from Georgia and abroad planning to settle together in the countryside to pursue a sustainable lifestyle. We have been meeting, visioning and planning since 2017. Through dialogue and events we formulated our core values, compatibilities and limitations.
We are currently searching for land, which should be about 1.5 hours from a bigger city (Kutaisi, Tbilisi, maybe Batumi), at least 5-10 hectars, access to water, clean and affordable (max. 1$/m2).
We welcome people that share our values and want to settle with us in the future village. We have weekly online meetings and regular visioning or land search workshops. We also work on registering a cooperative and an NGO.
Our vision: "We are a voluntarily self-organized, non-hierarchical community, thriving in mutual respect and support. We are co-learning and implementing approaches to Regenerative ecology and culture. Being interconnected with the wider community, we desire to create a sustainable society"
The village will feature:
- residential plots in private ownership where residents can create their own environmental friendly living space
- Co-housing spaces for volunteers, travelers and prospect members
- Community Center to connect, learn, organize events, trainings, retreats and host visitors.
- Communal gardens and food forest that will provide a large share of the food for inhabitants and visitors.
- Artisanal workshops and tool sharing
- Social and private businesses by (groups of) residents
- A kindergarten and a school based on modern child led education
Primary interests: Community living, regenerative land management,
