There are opportunities to have a community garden plot or to lease farm land.
Bedroom with shared bathroom $750.
This is especially intended as an opportunity for a farmer, artist, student, professional, or other community-minded person to live here at the ecovillage.
Quoting from another ecovillager: “Residents have access to our shared common house with a large kitchen, fireplace lounge, kids play room, laundry facilities, arts room, guest room, teen space and music room. The community strives to use consensus decision making and has a 5 hour monthly recommended volunteer contribution.
The Ecovillage is a 33 unit strata community, and home to an intergenerational mix of people. The houses, common house, gathering spaces, parking lot, and community garden comprise 3 acres. An additional 20 acres includes certified organic farmland, constructed wetland, salmon bearing stream, riparian areas, and walking trails. It is an excellent opportunity to live on a farm without the costs of a large property.“
