EARTHAVEN ECOVILLAGE

Geni 

Children with Kayla










Recently I attended Bizarre Bazaar (Christmas trade fair and entertainment) event held at Earthaven Ecovillage Council Hall. There many exhibitors selling their handcrafted wares and home made food. The children participated by making a paper chain that was decorated around the hall. Local customers enjoyed the friendship, sharing ideas, food, drinks and music.










I bought a pair of handcrafted ear rings from Seed and Sky  made by Kelcey Loomer, a young lady who is a phenomenal artist.

 Earthaven Ecovillage is a 10 minute walk from Full Circle Family Farm.  It was founded in 1994 and is emerging as a major centre for lifestyle advancement in Western North Carolina. With 320 acres in the beautiful, rugged Blue Ridge Mountains, 39 miles from Ashville. Earthaven 's development mirrors a world movement towards sustainability, planetary responsibility and human evolution. They offer tours; classes and workshops in ecovillage life skills; extended visits and camping; Internships and work-exchange opportunities; special events and a range of membership options.

I also enjoy attending the coffee hour at Earthaven every Wednesday morning with Geni and Kayla. There is so much to learn from the members, young and old.

Until next time
Discover it Live it
