Local and ecological actions: are you joining?

The Kurki eco-village is opening its association to new members. Would you like to join and co-create inspiring activities with the resources of the place?

So far, the village has organized volunteering projects with Erasmus and a summer café but they would like to do more workshops and local actions so new people, new ideas and new skills are needed to co-create that together!! The village exists since a long time and has a long experience of community building.

No need to live in the village to join the association. The yearly fee is 10€ / adult, 5€ / kid under 15 years old, 20€ / family and support members can contribute 50€-150€. Feel free to reach out at Satu Mattila: kurjenekokylayhdistys@gmail.com

You can read here more info about Kurki, its beautiful eco-houses and the dozen of people living there in a beautiful nature.

If you’d like to meet with every one, join their Christmas Coffee time on Saturday Dec 21st, 12:00-14:00 in Vesilahti.
