Eco-Village Development

The presentation will provide an overview of the different stages and qualities of the various systems involved in creating an eco-village. I will be speaking about the need for land we can call our own and how to obtain it. From initial property requirements and land usage to various energy systems and different technologies required, I will also review the steps involved in maintaining a self sustaining community.  There will be an opportunity to discuss challenges and solutions for this type of endeavor and to share ideas with each other.
