What we do

Our Vision is to birth Heaven on Mother Earth (H.O.M.E.), to awaken humanity from our deep sleep by taking 100% responsibility for all aspects of our lives.
Earthwaking Village exists in order to assist those that love the Truth to live the Truth. This village is for people who are tired of living in a world full of corruption, fear, division and lack. Our members have left all that behind and devoted their lives to co-creating the New Earth – full of love, connection, honesty and abundance from the inside out.
We are manifesting abundance for ALL by building off-grid, self sustainable 3-Dimensional (Spiritual, Physical and Emotional) Freedom Universities all around the world. We are developing and sharing a new type of education where the focus areas are on health, wealth, happiness, relationships and spiritual connection.
Our eco-village sits on 5 lush acres in sunny Platanillo, Costa Rica. We have 25ish people (adults and kids) living here full time and often have guests, work-trade volunteers, and event attendees come visit us. We have new 1 and 2 bedroom homes, renovated homes/casitas, and condo style studio apartment homes available for stewarding.
We have a full time Garden Team that manages our greenhouse and cares for the 100’s of fruit trees that we have planted in our food forest. We also share our Garden of Eden paradise with 80ish hens that produce more than enough eggs for us and to share with the community at large. We eat most of our meals (breakfast and lunch) together in a family-style round table way, and prepare mostly vegetarian meals (with eggs and dairy, sometimes). Though you are welcome to cook for yourself as much or as little as you like and eat according to your own preferences.
We host in-person transformational events at least 4 times per year that bring people home to Love and the Truth of who they really are… perfect children of God. Register for our next event here: www.RememberExperience.com Our community members also host life-changing transformational events on a weekly basis online via zoom and I invite you to attend our FREE introduction by registering at www.FreedomToBeMasterclass.com (almost every Thursday evening).
We are a Community centered around a Purpose and a Village centered around that Community. The land that supports the community provides us with sovereign sources of food, water, shelter in service to our mission of birthing Heaven on Mother Earth.
If you are ready to leave “The Matrix” behind and step in to a radically different way of life… reach out. We’d love to hear form you.

Our Mission

To heal humanity from the inside out and create a world of abundance for all, by taking 100% responsibility for our thoughts, feelings, actions and reality while working in harmony with nature and each other. As a result, we are birthing the New Earth!

Worktrade Opportunities on Big Island Hawaii

We are continuing our work-trade program at Bridge Hawaii for the right people on this beautiful 86-acre land located along the Hāmākua Coast. Ideally, we want to host those individuals who can help with the garden and who can support with build projects for up to a 3 month stay. This work-trade would include lodging, food staples, community kitchen, running hot water showers, off-grid electricity, and laundry. There is access to high speed wi-fi. We often have a car that can be reserved. We also have full bar signal strength with Verizon cellphone service. We have about 2 acres of permaculture garden that needs to be cared for including; weeding, planting, picking up mulch, some tree trimming, ect. We are currently in a building stage on the land. We have a few current grant projects we are working on and some build projects that are underway. We are an intentional community with about 8 permanent residents. There are rescue dairy cows, mini cows, mini donkeys, horses, a donkey, cats, dogs, and active bee hives. We are a drug and alcohol “free” space. A glass of wine or beer with dinner is fine, but absolutely no day drinking or parties. We have a meditation temple and many waterfall pools that are wonderful for swimming. Close to some of the nicest beaches on island. We have snorkeling gear and a kayak. Since this is an animal sanctuary, we limit the consumption of meat on the land. Fish, eggs, honey, and dairy are fine. Let me know if you’re interested by sending an email or text for our application. Maomi (801) 623-0738 ma***@*****************ii.com

Join us in Our Adventure of Co-Creating a Life of Peace, Love, and Abundance Together!

LOOKING FOR OUR NEW FAMILY OF CO CREATORS TO JOIN OUR ADVENTURE! Message us to schedule a visit! More about us and our vision below! Read on and we look forward to hearing from you soon if you feel in alignment with our vision! A forming and co-created spiritually-oriented intentional community and homestead nestled in the beautiful woods of Northern Michigan. We are focused on self-awareness, free and open spiritual/consciousness development, sustainable living, self sufficiency, growing organic food, building small energy efficient homes/dwellings, peace, and freedom in all things. We are looking to build a community of like minded souls that share in our vision of creating a harmonious and sustainable way of life that is close to nature and focused on living from the heart/soul. Seeking kind, compassionate, caring, and emotionally mature souls who are good at non violent communication, resolving conflict peacefully, and working together. The community property is well on its way to sustainability already with a fruit orchard with over 18 apple trees and a variety of plum and pear trees. The property also has 2 very large organic gardens covering around 3 acres in total combined size filled with organic healthy vegetables for community self sufficiency, farm market selling, and food preserving (canning). We have plans to build a couple energy efficient green houses in the near future! We are also getting 30-40 chickens for egg production within the next month. Also considering a couple cows or goats for milk. We currently have 3 houses on the homestead property that are available to new community members for rent or work trade or a combination of both! The main community house has potentially 6 bedrooms available as well. We have plans to build multiple small/tiny homes and cabins in the beautiful woods here for members that are energy efficient and off grid with renewable clean energy/electricity and rainwater harvesting. We are working on a community in
