Forming Formed: 2007 Established: 2007
Antonia Village
Brighton, East Sussex,
United Kingdom
(No land yet!)
 We are a group of about 40 adults (and growing) intending to build an ecovillage near Brighton, UK. We intend the village to eventually have about 100 adults, and to be rural or semi-rural. Economy: agriculture, crafts, school, healing arts centre, birthing centre, & whatever other businesses people bring or build. Ecology: carbon negative, biodiversity positive, thru low or negative impact buildings, permaculture, and conservation. Culture: cooperative, artistic, celebratory, including kids & elders. Spirit: many paths one mountain, with a commitment to truth-telling and learning as strategies for embracing shadow stuff. We will continue to clarify as we work toward getting on the land. Visit our website to help us vision!
