First episode and all of Season 1
Starting in August 2024, Allan and his Dog Hamish will be visiting established Ecovillages initially across the US. We plan to record on-site videos and have begun a podcast on Sustainable Community Life. Allan's main goal is to find a community to call home.
We'd like our onsite visits to consist of our journey to the village, a tour of your spaces and places, special views of what makes your village special, and a few interviews. We will give you all the footage and promote your community any way that serves you. All of this is free.
I am undertaking this road trip/video deep dive precisely because there is no content like this that can help me to decide where I would like to live. Hopefully, if I do this, it will be of service to others like me who seek to live in community
I want to live in an intentional community and am drawn to ecovillages in particular. My, and dare I say humanity's experimentation living and working in isolation and separation from natural systems has reached the boiling point. As the Polycrisis pushes more and more of us to seek radical socioeconomic change, intentional communities will need to flex to accommodate much greater demand for sustainable community life.
Picking and being picked to join an intentional community is quite a process. Even the process of learning my preferences - what I want/don't want, like/don't like - is challenging. Traveling and vlogging about my experience feels like a direct and personal way of conducting my research and helping others in search of intentional communities to do the same.
In my work, I specialize in helping for-profit organizations unlock the potential of business ecosystems. This highly collaborative business model is based on creating inter-dependency between diverse players that collectively drive economic performance within a more sustainable business community. Sustainable Community Life will seek to apply entrepreneurial and ecosystematic business learnings to support economic self-sufficiency for individual and collective ecovillages (See Podcast Episode 3)
