El Semillero
E-28816 Valdeavero Madrid,
Spain
 We envision a community with people of all ages and diverse interests, races, and backgrounds. In common we are open minded, tolerant, environmentally conscious, and aware of all issues that endanger future human life and the Earth; we commit to our personal growth using all suitable tools and to learning how to work with others for the common good. Located in the countryside near Madrid, we care for an organic garden and for a few hens and serve organic food to visitors. All this, plus facilitating our space for courses and gatherings of all kinds, keeps us in touch with our fellow humans, so increasing the chances for others to follow. We strongly believe that the right education and childcare will make a difference in the future; we will be an educational community. Our simple lifestyle allows us to carry through a luxury life. Masters of our days, we use them to live mindfully, renouncing only all that we actually do not need. We have plenty of time for experimenting with alternate solutions in areas like health, relationships, construction, economy, and everything else. Our model communities are those that provide fertile space for many different people with diverse missions to accomplish their goals, while cooperating with all others; The Farm, Twin Oaks, Findhorn.
