CORRE LA VOZ: WE ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE AND FAMILIES FOR THE ECOALDEA .

When our path moves in harmony with nature, our dreams and goals move at their own pace and, sometimes, we need a special company for that path… .. persistence ……. .Persistence is never a passive wait but quite the opposite ... ... we activate our senses even more so that our thoughts and actions vibrate with the same frequency. Then we are in tune with the energy of the universe ... and our dreams and our destiny ... is fulfilled.

Thank you, ECOALDEA WITH FREE EDUCATION FOR PEOPLE AND VEGETARIAN FAMILIES

WHERE: The space to settle the tribe is in the North of Portugal. There are 120, 000 square meters of land, 4 medium renovated buildings, 1 large ruin and 2 small ruins of old mills to be renovated, it also has 1 old granary from 1860. The farm borders a beautiful river of crystal clear water and pools for bathing, with rocks and large trees. There are many trees, some very large and also magical spaces for serenity meditation and silence. The energy and vibration of space is great. The land is in a mountainous area with slope and has flat spaces (terraces) for orchards with lots of natural water throughout the year, since it has 5 water sources within the farm and the right to a third of the river's water, through the old channel that took the water of the river to the mills of the farm. It is at the base of large mountains that reach up to 1200m high, which protect the eco village from the north winds, although the land is between 350 and 450m above sea level. It is a 10 minute walk from the next village, where the cows are still airing all day through the mountains and streets of the village and 20 minutes by car from the largest population (Cabeceiras de Basto). The weather is good, it is not especially rainy or cold (it does not freeze and in 10 years it has snowed once) the orange trees live.

SUMMARY OF THE SELF-SUFFICIENCY, RESPECTFUL FOOD, SPIRITUALITY, ECOLOGY AND FREE EDUCATION PROJECT:

1) The eco village works in an assembly manner and decisions are made by consensus.

2) In the eco village, each one lives in an intimate space (house) and shares community spaces. All activities, constructions, orchards, etc. that develop in the ecovillage, start from the principles and designs of permaculture.

3) In the eco village we have community gardens, both to cover daily and cyclic food needs (cereal, oil, fruit, vegetables, etc.). The goal is to self-supply more and more, food needs what we have.

4) In the space we have community buildings for all those activities that we share in the daily work (repair shop, and bakery, projection room, community dining room, course and workshop room, spaces for meditation, school, spaces for the gift, exchange or sale of community products and all those that we agree).

5) Within the eco village we assume the education of children . In the spaces designed for it (building, exteriors, forest ...), shared free education is carried out, where children can grow from respect for individual development and their true needs, boosting self-esteem, teamwork and empowering the natural and unique capacities and resources that accompany them. To live in harmony with these values, in the eco village, there is no TV or competitive machines. But if cinema, games, dances, rituals, creative artistic and reading spaces, etc.

6) Within the eco village it is only commercialized economically, which is community . Each person in their home and spaces created for it, can carry out any type of product or activity, to market it outside the eco village. All the people who live in the eco village spend 15 hours a week on community tasks. Within or outside the project you can mount any type of community activity, economic or not, exchange, gift, that the assembly decides, to obtain an economic benefit, of wisdom, playful, cultural, etc. which will complement, if necessary, that which nature offers us.

7) Among people, we help each other to make our lives easier and more fun .

8) In the eco village, the doing that accompanies us on a day-to-day basis, in all our activities and relationships, are animated and driven from the heart and the most sincere and loving respect for people and their differences. Spiritually, we feel the energy within us and as a unit that we are with the universe, we share and express this energy, helping and helping each other, from activity and love, making our relationships in the eco village and with our environment, be an endless path of wisdom and awareness, in all areas of our lives (social, educational, spiritual, ecological, food, etc.).

9) Our presence in the eco village must be free of economic burdens and debts, which force us and bind us at a pace of economic activity. This rhythm keeps us slaves, in that strange and alien wheel to our true being and being, moving away from our innermost and real needs.

10) The eco village is vegetarian food, without alcohol, tobacco or drugs. In the eco village, non-domestic animals, chickens, sheep, goats and bees, are exclusively community. With them we exchange eggs, wool for clothes, pollination of food, milk for cheese, manure for gas and orchards, etc. Any other non-domestic animal, other than those mentioned, the assembly will decide whether or not to join the eco village. Throughout the space of the eco village, our actions are respectful of nature, not killing, not mistreating or marketing animals.

11) The eco village is linked to its surroundings, relating and acting on it . In order to be also, an engine of awareness in all those issues and values ​​that are practiced in the day-to-day life of the eco village and towards which the eco village walks, in its relationship with the earth mother and the universe. Therefore, at the same time that we act as an example of practical decline, incorporating ourselves into the harmony and balance of nature, we also feel that we have to act, from consciousness and nonviolence, as an engine of expansion within us and in our immediate and distant environment.

12) We are talking about making a good fire with firewood, fears and egos, then we cook in a large pot : spirituality, decline, nonviolence, self-sufficiency, sustainability, permaculture, ecology, free education, respectful food and, with everything this, we feed our personal development and that of our environment, encouraging and helping, so that more and more, life on the planet is more fair, joyful and loving. Do you like stew? In short: people and families who love nature and respect it, reduce the ballast of the needs created, but unnecessary, we live mostly adapting to what nature offers us (respecting animal life). We minimize our dependence on money. From love, we flow in unity, connected to the heart of the universe. We self-manage health, self-manage education, self-manage food, self-manage energy, self-manage mutual help and self-manage everything we can. Everyone in their space, helping each other and our environment and, also, sharing activities, land and individual and group growth . Expressing and feeling the love, the earth, simplicity, peace and the awakening of conscience, which gives us wisdom and brings us closer and closer, to be and be in our center connected to the reality that emanates from our heart ... ... and, above all, to be in the present living and sharing our dreams.

WE ADVANCE TO A NEW WORLD, FROM THE HEART
