Discover & learn about gardening, fermenting, sustainable houses, natural building, food production, conservation, rewilding and meditative movement, the evolution of the village and more.

Your fee includes meals & accommodation, as well as all scheduled activities & opportunities to participate.

Accommodation options include Bed & Breakfast in a private home or our recently renovated lodge, Paperbark House, or camping in your own tent or van. If you are single, you can pay a single supplement to ensure a private room. Or save money and let us allocate you to share with one or two others of the same sex. Or bring a friend to share with. (As we have limited rooms, we appreciate your sharing.)

All meals are provided, and extra home-made snacks can be purchased at our own Coffee Cart organic café.

Kids are always welcome at the Ecovillage, where 40 kids of different ages are already living. Children can join many of the adults activities, and some extra activities will be provided for the children too.
