  Beschreibung

  An emerging ecovillage outside of Georgetown, Guyana. Carlos the founder, left his fashion career in New York to return to his homeland and transform 1 acres of his family's land into an ecovillage. The property already has various fruit trees, a vegetable garden, a main villa and several glamping structures. The ecovillage will be built around 3 main principles: eco education for locals, self-sufficiency, and spiritual growth. Future plans of the ecovillage include a fashion district where artisans make eco-friendly clothing, a photography/music/media editing studio, and a market. We are officially open!

The current project involves building more glamping A-frame tents and expanding the main villa, as well as harvesting fruit and expanding the vegetable garden with permaculture techniques.
