Program areas at The Center for Sustainable and Cooperative Culture
Sustainable Living Visitor Program: The organization hosts several visitor sessions that run each year for two-week durations, that allow individuals to experience the reality of life in an ecological intentional community. Participants attend workshops on a wide variety of sustainable living practices such as natural and green construction techniques, permaculture and renewable energy production.
Resilient Systems Support: The organization created a fund to catalyze and support projects at Dancing Rabbit which will help us anticipate and respond to changes and shocks to the environment, wider economy, and society, and improve our on-site demonstration capacity.
On-Farm Education: The organization hosts various courses each year in sustainable living, offering a venue and organizing teachers and course design. Participants learn and practice methods of natural building while getting exposure to an ecologically-friendly lifestyle.
Eco-Village Tours / Short Term Visitors/ Speaking Tour: The organization offers several options for the public to understand examples of functioning sustainable lifestyles. This is achieved through offering short tours of homes and communal facilities, hosting participants for one to three days, and talks given at remote locations. Participants are able to see or hear about our alternative building methods, organic gardens, renewable energy, water catchment, etc.
