 The First Universal International Open Book Eco-Community forming in the USA & Mexico, general areas to be decided. We are creating a land trust which will purchase two to 640 acres of pristine, lush, forested foothills next to mountainous land. We plan to be a fully sustainable health related eco-techno community.
All group info is recorded in Open Book.
Please join in this group if you are interested in helping with any aspects of the planning phase, be part of a community and or are interested in investing in the project as a founding member or simply to make a natural refuge conservation investment.
We plan on some type of land purchase before April 2013.
The final land purchase will be by consensus vote.
