The first Swedish raw-food community!

We are thinking about creating a raw-food co-op housing community (bostadsrättsförening), the first of its kind in Sweden! It's for those who are interested in living closely with other like-minded people who want to create a common living space, and in this way use our skills positively for the benefit of us all, and the people around us.

What might be found or created in this group, depending on number of members:

• our own workshops of different kinds

• a café

• a restaurant

• shows

• a school (homeschooling?)

• food supplied by ourselves

• organic food

• a music studio

• a pool

• a sauna

• a dance/yoga, festival room

• a library

• a mini-theater

• a car pool

• an eco-shop

• and much more...

There are many advantages of creating this in a co-op form (bostadsrättsform).

More on that for you who are interested:

What we ask from you is that you are interested in vegan food as a lifestyle, with raw food as a base, and an understanding of a lifestyle based on a raw food/living food/fruitarian lifestyle.

Therefore, animals will not be an option in the co-op housing and on this place (but they will still be possible in the larger ecovillage).

Alcohol and smoking of any kind will not be allowed.

The place for this co-op housing (Bostadsrättsförening) is in the middle of Skåne (south of Sweden), close to nature and the continent. We have found suitable land in a nice, suitable area.

We are looking for you who want to join us and live healthily, sustainably, and cheaply in an organic way with like-minded people.

Does this sound interesting? Then drop me (the powerman) a line as soon as possible.

PS. The co-op will consist mostly of Swedish and Danish people, but is open to anyone who joins from other countries too. We do speak English ;-)

Love and light,

/Powerman

PPS. Patience is a virtue, they say... Now we can join hands with another bigger project, where our Vaia project fits right in! Land is found, and bought! Building permissions are GO!

We need you who are ready to build our first house together and share that until we are ready to build the next house for one of those who has started by living in the first one.

So it's a good time for those who are into the raw-living diet to gather and see how we are going to be part of the bigger ecovillage. There are about 40 spots left as of today.

Don't wait; contact me ASAP if you are serious about this! We are moving on now!
