8th Life Panama is a permaculture-based Eco-village Project in the early stages of formation. We’re designing our community based on permaculture ethics, respect, peace & living an “on-purpose” life. Our aim is to provide a social support structure and maintain a low impact lifestyle. We envision an intentional rural community where the values and ideals of community, respect, peace, and living an “on-purpose” life will be rediscovered by the diverse, multigenerational group of people who join us. We are currently seeking founding members and experienced permaculture volunteers. WHY? We can live more lightly. As human beings we weren’t designed to live disconnected from nature and each other. As a society we’ve gone astray and as a result we’re damaging our mother earth and soon she won’t be able to sustain human life. We seem to have also lost the ability to relate with one another as human beings. It’s time to transition from a destructive society to a sustainable world. We need to stop the destruction, build soil, restore ecosystems, heal our addictions, change organizational structures of the global economy, & learn to live in community. BE A STEWARD AND PROTECTOR OF THE LAND. Our Eco-village land, Finca Ubuntu, is 21Ha of grasslands and forests bordered by a river and stream. When we bought the land, it was in its natural state apart from 1Ha that was farmed on occasion. The finca is located 11 km from the town of Antón Panama.
