Things we need help with right now
Things we need help with right now
We were inspired by this Ted talk given by James Ehrlich the founder of ReGen villages. Here is the link to the main ReGen Village website. A group of us have decided that we want to create a community here in Bristol. We are keeping track of some of the significant things that we do in order to keep the community members informed and to inspire and help others who want to do similar.
More detail on ReGen's plan can be found of Effekt Architects site.
Locations. We are looking for pilot sites to build our first villages. Do you have land or know someone who does? Please get in touch with us.
Whilst the core team get on with finding the land, money and developers. We need help with these things. Of course if you want to get involved in anything else please contact us via the 'Join Us' form.
- Admin of interested people. Keeping a mailing list and maintaining the Google Group.
- Events. Organising periodic get togethers and thinking of and organising other ways to build our community before we move in.
- Visits. There are great things that we can all go and see to inspire us. Help needed to find and organise trips to inspiring places.

James was in the UK and managed to squeeze in a visit to our group in Bristol. He gave us an update on where ReGen was with the project in Holland.
4 February 2018 - Shift Bristol visit to Bioaqua
Our eco-village will have an aquaponics system for growing food and farming fish to eat. As part of the Shift Permaculture course that I am on, we visited Bioaqua and were given a tour and explanation of how the system works. It was fascinating yet so simple and seems to me a much easier way to farm than traditional methods. It definitely is the future of food production.
