We’ll be touring Rickey Farm and envisioning the property as an EcoVillage at our April 30 Meetup.

The place has gorgeous views of Vernon Valley and phenomenal potential for sustainable homes and structures, agriculture, businesses, festivals — whatever we can imagine! (For more information on the farm, click here.)

Seriously, this MAY BE our 1st EcoVillage!

Meetup Schedule:

  • 10 a.m.: Optional Pre-Session (see below)
  • 12 Noon: Potluck (and intro for new guests)
  • 1 p.m.: Main Program (including farm tour, weather permitting)
  • 4-5 p.m.: Optional Post-Session Networking

 

NEW !!  We’re testing out a new element to our Meetup format: an optional pre-session where we learn by doing a useful regenerative project. If you come at 10 am on April 30, you can help create a Back to Eden Garden — a “no-dig” type of farming that restores the soil over time. Dress appropriately, of course!

At noon we’ll have our traditional PotLuck.

Bring a dish and/or something to drink. If this is your first Meetup with us, please come at noon; we want to know what you’re passionate about, and we’ll share the EcoVillage NJ story. We’ll also connect you with other members.

After we scope out the farm and its vast possibilities, we’ll design some possibilities of what Rickey Farm could look like, as an EcoVillage.

While we normally end the Meetup at 4 pm, we’re hoping people will linger at the Farm, getting to know each other and enjoying the great outdoors.

We’re organizing carpools for this and future Meetups. Sign up through our Ridesharing / Carpool form.

You can also select the teams you want to join, and sign up to get our newsletter.
