Young family looking for an alternative, social and sustainable way of living

About the Communities

What we do

We are a young family with two little children who want to start a new, more social and sustainable way of living. We would like to buy land for housing, rural tourism and farming and are looking for partners. We want to grow our own fruits and vegetables, to keep a few farming animals and to produce our own solar energy. We want to do this because we think that we will benefit from this in the long run while at the same time contribute something to save our planet. However, this should be achieved, in the most practical way necessary as we do not follow any political or dogmatic ideals nor any perception of a parallel society!
So we are looking for like-minded people; neither age nor background is of any importance. You should be able to think on your feet, be creative and flexible and, obviously, be social, open-minded and ecologically aware.
It would be fantastic, if we could raise our and maybe your children within a group of people who support each other and who want to create a fair and green-minded living environment.
Ideally this ground should be situated somewhere is Spain, Portugal or the Canary Islands with sufficient space for living, renting out and farming.
If you want to get to know us better, participate or even can offer such a place we are very much looking forward to be hearing from you!

Healing Love Healing Money: Trust As The Foundation For A New Culture

Money, love and power are among the hardest things any community works with, and many of us carry the same fears into both: not having enough, losing what we have, and the sense that if someone else gets money or love, we won’t. Healing Love, Healing Money: Trust as the Foundation for a New Culture is taught by two intentional communities. Karen McAllister and Duncan Cryle are from Clear Sky Meditation and Retreat Center, a Buddhist-lineage community in the BC Rockies. Monika Alleweldt and Benjamin von Mendelssohn from Tamera Healing Biotope, a community of about 160 people in southern Portugal that has spent decades studying love, trust and relationship. Clear Sky has spent years working on its relationship with money, and our two communities found surprising parallels in the fears beneath both. Over four sessions we explore the roots of fear around money and belonging, love, possession and power, trust as infrastructure (community as a container for healing), and ethical livelihood. We use short meditations, body-based practices, reflection and small-group conversation. You do not need to be in a romantic relationship or live in community. When: October 27, Nov 3, 10, 17. All four sessions: 12–2pm Vancouver, 1–3pm Alberta, 7–9pm UK and Portugal, 8–10pm Central Europe. Note: US and some Canadian provinces change clocks on November 1, so the US west coast is 12–2pm on October 27, then 11am–1pm for the remaining sessions, and Eastern is 3–5pm on October 27, then 2–4pm for the rest.
