St. Michael’s Sustainable Community

COSTA RICA SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY, ECO VILLAGE & REGENRATIVE AGRICULTURE FARMLAND 

Why Vacation in Paradise when you can live here?

Our family-owned community is a functioning model community to prove that living sustainably is achievable and can be accomplished with less money while proving greater benefits.  All of our properties are beyond organic and regenerative in nature.  Every property is planted with a polyculture of edible landscaping, utility plants, and medicinal plants. Our intentional community has made the switch from being consumers to being producers.  It has been good for us, our health, nature, and made financial sense.

WE PRACTICE SUSTAINABLE LIVING

For a solution to be truly sustainable and good it must have a positive return to the environment and society. At the heart of any design problem is a question: Are we trying to make something less bad or are we really trying to make things better? It’s not about solving for the negative. It is about creating a positive. Mahatma Gandhi once said, “What we are doing to the forests is a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and one another.” Our Club, The Permaculture Country Club is dedicated to building up forest gardens and people through regenerative agriculture.
