Stay in the village from Friday to Sunday.

For two days, live, eat, work, play and learn alongside Ecovillage members while you really get the vibe of this open, welcoming community.

Enjoy a full program of activities for adults and kids, including talks, workshops, socialising & getting your hands dirty.

Discover & learn about foraging, sustainable houses, food production, conservation, crafts and ceramics for kids skills, handicrafts, cheese and bread making the evolution of the village and more.
