Shift Esperanza is an intentional cohousing-inspired Eco-Village/ Permaculture Farm on 100 acres, including private homes, shared common amenities, and a dedicated farm for growing food year-round. Our land is in the dry jungle of Nosara, Costa Rica, about 10 minutes to the town and beach. We envision a world in harmony with nature, where people support and care for each other in the spirit of community, and grow together through interpersonal connections and shared experience. Our Eco-Village is based on six core values: Interconnection, Environmental Stewardship, Self-Inquiry, Accountability, Generosity, and Play. The permaculture farm is in its third year of actively growing food, the infrastructure have been approved by the local municipal authorities, and architectural designs for the homes and common areas are nearing completion. Interested community members are encouraged to attend La Siembra, a week-long introduction to Shift from February 10-17, 2024. Contact [email protected] for more info or +1 720-232-3826.
