Help develop a self-sufficient community homestead in Budapest, Hungary

Infos

• 

  Description

  The community comprises 40 members (adults and children) who own about 4 hectares and lease another 4 hectares of land. The community considers its model, cooperates with the Hungary association and several members of the community. In its spiritual development, it follows the guidelines and has sustainability as its main objective.
  The community was started in 2017 in Pest County in Hungary on abandoned agricultural land that had been unused for 20 years. The site has been gradually occupied by vegetation, primarily saline, dry meadow image due to poor soil quality and deep water resources. It requires self-sufficiency out of compulsion and sustainability, as all infrastructure is located far away from the land and local resources are poor, without any water bodies, and only one well with poor water quality and quantity. The land is still underdeveloped, members settling down gradually.
  
  Actually (in the summertime 2023) three families are living on site, part-time, and 3 differenet construtions and gardening project are going on.
