ljgeoffSo, this is actually a scary thing to contemplate. By opening our land up to new people with new ideas, I open myself up to criticism and decreased power. I think that both of those things are good, but they're scary.
From Nicole Reese, who studies Ecovillages:
"The #1 need village builders express is finding capable, aligned community members."
Other great bits:
"Ecovillages 2.0 were about retreating into nature to excape an unfriendly world and build a cozy fire for the few.
Ecovillages 3.0 aim to build solar punk enclaves with fully modern amenities, implementing biomimetic tech, and be part of a global community."
"Village Tech is a thing. People are building softwares, protocols, and alternative currencies just to support designing, building, and operating regenerative villages."
I've joined a platform called Tribes.
One of the main challenges that we are facing as a group is Time. There is so much work that needs to be done, and we all work full-time jobs. Additionally, everyone in the family is raising children. So, for example, the two big jobs we have for this season is improving the road and planting trees. The amount of days that people have for working on this is in the single digits.
