Communities Presenting in May
Hapori Eco Cohousing
Hapori is located a short distance from San Miguel de Allende, in the central highlands of Mexico. Our vision is to co-create a sustainable and modern lifestyle where we enhance the wellness of the members and the neighbouring communities. Our mission is to establish an efficient, yet affordable and comfortable, eco-community, inspiring members to live more mindful, enriched and low-impact lives, while restoring the native ecosystem. The community will consist of 15 households, plus common house, workshop, events, and coworking spaces, and a spacious guest house, on around 2 hectares (4.9 Acres). We are also nestled within a larger eco community for additional mutual support.
So far we have our first house finished and occupied, with the second house ready soon, and three more houses under construction, as well as various amenities already in use. We have 4 founding members and we are looking for other members to come and enjoy being stewards of this beautiful land!
E Street Attachment Community
Community in development in Livingston, Montana. An ecovillage in utero. One person with an acre and a vision and a commitment to building strong, healthy relationships through the lens of secure attachment. From natural and recycled materials, the community will build a collection of tiny houses into the hillside facing South. The homes will be warmed by the sun and wood furnaces and powered by solar panels. The community will work towards zero waste and food independence. The community will develop a small business that manufactures products that help people limit and repurpose their waste. A portion of the community’s housing will be reserved for people experiencing homelessness. With flexible expectations, the community will practice vegetarianism, meditation, and yoga. Individuals will share a portion of their income. All will work on the land to varying degrees.
Fruitful Vegan Village
Community in development in Huntsville, Arkansas. We will live together in ways that are for the highest good for the planet, the people and the animals. As we learn how to harmoniously co-create our life together, we will share our knowledge with others.
We will use tried and tested methods of living, including a whole foods, oil free plant based diet, and the Community Land Trust model. Residents will be empowered to fulfill their highest potential in every area of life: spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental. Being accessible in affordability and to all kinds of people is essential. As we grow in our cooperative abilities to use our gifts, we will serve each other and all of life in ways that help to create a world where all of life can thrive. Community in development in Huntsville, Arkansas.

Testimonials for Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities
“This is my first exposure to intentional living situations. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the possibilities and the underlying thinking that informs this kind of living choice. The presenters were excellent. It was great to see the different settings and to hear the various questions related to these three living situations. Thank you so much for this presentation.”
