We're setting up an eco-project in a beautiful setting near town Banská Štiavnica. The project is in an early stage and the living standard is basic, though pure, natural and soothing to the soul. The water is from the spring. Solar energy system is modest but is getting improved. Dry toilet in place. There are goats, rabbits, a dog and a cat. There will be a bunch of projects this year: water and access works based on a permaculture design, building renovations, camping style toilet and shower facilities... There is also plenty of room for your own creativity, the possibilities are countless for every lover of living in harmony with nature:)

SUITABLE ONLY FOR THOSE WHO ENJOY NATURAL, OUTDOOR LIFE STYLE AND WOULD LIKE TO GIVE US A HAND WITH DAILY TASKS

Our worldview
We realise certain fundamental truths:
a) Humans don’t stand apart from nature; we’re part of an interconnected whole with complete dependence on the functioning of planet’s life-supporting processes
b) Disrupting these life-supporting processes to the point where they can’t regenerate is self-terminating
c) Human survival (along with many other living beings) lies in us becoming regenerative rather than destructive agents in the living system.
d) We become regenerative by applying our creativity through regenerative design principles, which results in a positive and meaningful engagement with life.

Our mission
To engage in a healthy, self-reliant living by acting as an environmentally, socially and economically regenerative, decentralised, local producer (as opposed to a dependent consumer) and promote regenerative design in creating human habitats and producing food, medicine, energy and materials.
