What we do

Bellbunya Community is set up as a small eco-village on 16 ha (40 acres). We have organic food gardens, wildlife corridors, a creek and lagoon, a conference hall restaurant, and accommodation for volunteers and 20 guests in twin-share and bunkroom accommodation. The Centre is run on 100% renewable energy.
Bellbunya is owned by Association for Sustainable Communities Inc, a not-for-profit association with a tax-deductible fund. The Association dreams of being able to seed more communities!
Bellbunya Community was established to explore ways to create a re-localised and sustainable future. Our “4-bottomline” approach includes: (1) personal and spiritual growth, (2) social sustainability, (3) economic sustainability, and (4) environmental sustainability. We practise a permaculture approach to organic growing and engage in bushland regeneration. Over time, we have sought to employ a broad range of group process skills and techniques for group facilitation, collaborative decision making, team building, conflict resolution, and project management. We have developed various processes and structures to support us in functioning effectively and to be able to continue to learn and grow – both as a community and as individuals. Our developing enterprises consider the healthy interplay of relationships with our environment and each other.
Join us for a community experience, incorporating activities such as permaculture, yoga, healthy eating, and community living.
With comfortable accommodation and well-equipped conference facilities, Bellbunya can also provide an inspirational environment within a rural setting ideal for:
* Yoga, spiritual retreats and personal awareness
* Group eco-awareness
* Permaculture and sustainable farming workshops
* Sustainable building and green technology workshops
* Community and team-building retreats
* Healthy living and cooking classes

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.
