    Description

    At our Eco Center we implement the ideas of building heritage conservation, and together with our believes in sustainable environmental values we become an active center for the community, as we educate and share practical knowledge of earth building methods.
    The center produces and builds earth constructed homes nationwide for more than 2 decades and keeps being involved and committed to the environmental efforts of the Israeli community.
    We are localized in a magical and inspiring space, at the edge of the Ramon Crater.

    Mitzpe Ramon is a small town, the most isolated in Israel. The community here is pluralistic and excepting. "Mizpe" sits on the very edge of the Ramon crater, overlooking views considered by many to be the most beautiful in the world. Staying here is perfect for those interested in combining the experience of low intensity, healthy physical work with a "desert retreat" – resting and getting to meet new cool people, enjoying endless spectacular views, clean air, and a chance to connect to the outside world, and to the world within!
