The resilliant ecovillage hub.
A vision of a Design for life in the face of disaster comes a resilliant solution. A community hub, that can serve as model example for rebuilding a more regenerative and disaster resistant home. What was once an old orchard and parking lot, can become the a DIY share space where community rebuilding skills can be learned. Human scale Earth plaster buildings, aka "Cobins" can serve as fireproof sleeping cabins. Clusters of these cobins will be centered around a central kitchen and bath area.
The grey water will be used to water gardens and to bring back the old abandoned orchard that used to provide shade. State of the art composting systems will serve as examples of how to properly treat human waste, the Ecozoic way, as witnessed at the Oregon Eclipse festival with 70,000 vistors from around the world.
The village can be individual solar powered units that work together to create a microgrid. This microgrid can generate enough power to create a small basic income for the community. Like in this wonderful example: http://www.electricchain.org/our-projects/project-13/
This site can become a hub, or "node" in the larger global Cooperative movement. Faircoop (Fair.coop) is a mycelium like network of worldwide cooperatives with their own cryptocurrency. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faircoop The Faircoop is looking for more North American Nodes.
Needs:
Land – Location identified, Purchase plan necessary.
Funding - $100k for downpayment and permits. $2000 a month for payments.
Organization – A Group willing to form to organize the project.
Interface – Community support for the project, and voicing this to the Local Government.
Long Term Vision – Become a model example of how to rebuild after disaster.

Do you have a short vision statement about your idea? Would you be open to hosting faircoin nodes at all of your current numundo hubs? https://fair.coop
