We encourage everyone to get involved in whatever capacity they feel comfortable with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Projects we are working on include tiny house building, organic gardening, obtaining 501(c)3 status, hosting skill-share events, and social gatherings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some classes that will be offered include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Alkaline Diet<\/li>\n<li>Herbs<\/li>\n<li>Tai Chi<\/li>\n<li>Qi Gong<\/li>\n<li>Meditation<\/li>\n<li>Yoga<\/li>\n<li>Reiki<\/li>\n<li>Tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique)<\/li>\n<li>Natural building<\/li>\n<li>Tiny House building<\/li>\n<li>Permaculture<\/li>\n<li>Organic Gardening<\/li>\n<li>Canning<\/li>\n<li>Fermenting<br \/>(And lots more!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Once established, our eco-village will serve as a model for a developing network of others worldwide. We strive to use gifting, bartering, trading and alternative forms of currency in an effort to eliminate the debt-ridden system currently being used by most of the world. We envision a healthy, balanced planet on which humans act as stewards. Health of the planet and health of it&#8217;s people are intricately woven. We plan on healing both and the relationship between the two, beginning with ourselves.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">By demonstrating and teaching various types of sustainable energy, natural building (Earth ships, hobbit houses, tiny houses, cob houses, etc.) using local and recycled materials, and permaculture techniques, we intend to educate others on simpler ways of living. In this way, we hope to start a trend that will lead to an eventual shift of mass consciousness and a sustainable future for all life on Earth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Our page on the Foundation for Intentional Community website is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ic.org\/directory\/emerald-grove\/\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">We look forward to making this world a better place together with you!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/cocreativelife.org\/wp-uploads\/2015\/04\/Tree-of-Life.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-82\" width=\"234\" height=\"260\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Co-Creative Living Foundation is proud to present a newly developing sustainable eco-village in Springfield, Oregon.
