and now … Protecting OUR Ecovillage Forever

OUR 2025 Permaculture Programs

O.U.R. Ecovillage and Starhawk – Earth Activist Training (E.A.T.) are offering a variety of opportunities for people of all ages and lived experience to gather and co-create an experiential adventure that will be a transformative inquiry into how we might all learn to hold each other as we heal into the beauty of the certainly uncertain future…and listen to what calls us forward.

GRAND re-OPENING and 25th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION

Join past and present communitarians and all of those who have put their hands, hearts and head (and 25 years of kindness) to co-create O.U.R. ECOVILLAGE!

Healing With the Wisdom of Cycles

Discover this unique 4-part conversation series where food and land serve as the foundation for medicine.

This journey is designed for adults to use awareness tools to (re)cultivate connections with food, land, and self by aligning with the cycles of nature.

Each gathering takes place on equinoxes or solstices; and pursues the cycles of life from childhood to old-hood.

Permaculture Teacher Training (PTT)

Empower yourself to advocate for change through whole systems teaching and design. In this dynamic and interactive course, you will learn significant teaching techniques to communicate and apply Permaculture (Pc) principles and strategies to a wide variety of audiences and educational settings.

Land acknowledgment

OUR ECOVILLAGE is situated on unceded Indigenous lands. The Coast Salish Peoples are the guardians of these lands and waters where we live, work, pray, and play. Quw’utsun (Cowichan) is a historical place of gathering and Na’tsa’ maht Shqwaluwun/”one-heart one-mind” for many Indigenous peoples.

OUR ECOVILLAGE is committed to regenerate land and all ecosystems while acknowledging and respecting Indigenous knowledge that ensures thriving for all beings; we call this Permaculture.

OUR ECOVILLAGE is dedicated to continuously educating ourselves and our communities about the history and peoples of OUR bio-region, to assist in decolonization and re-villaging as a path towards peacemaking, from local to global.
