Descriptions of communities that we have received after publishing the abovementioned book:
France
Fantasy Farm (aka the Queer Ashram Project)
Website https://fanfarm.org
Contact https://fanfarm.org/contact or
An experimental place, a place of magic and discovery, of tolerance. A queer place based on the principles of yoga, „The Queer Ashram“. I obviously got this notion of an ashram in India where I spent a lot of time over the past 12 years. In an ashram there is a guru, for „The Queer Ashram“ this guru should be nature. This will be clearly written in the statutes : „freedom and the development of one’s own nature, inspired by nature“.
The principles should be those of non-violence, vegetarianism, tolerance, sobriety, non-consumption of substances such as tobacco and alcohol. The spiritual process should also be very important.
The place, the space should be able to host and welcome passersby as well as people who wish to stay a while, people who wish to invest time and creative energy to make it an abode open to diversity, tolerance, caring and sharing.
A vegetable garden, a prairie and some forest area are essential, a rural setting, quiet, tranquil and beautiful.

Villa Lebensfluss e.G.
Eichhardtstr. 19, 51766 Engelskirchen, Germany
Founded 2022
Near Gummersbach / Cologne
8 adult members, 3 kids
410 sqm living space + 1.600 sqm outdoor
Languages: German, English, Persian
We chose to live as a community and as a kind of family in the centre of Oberberg, 1 hour drive from Cologne, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
Our communal project consists two buildings with four apartments including a garden and access to the river. We decided founding a community in Engelskirchen, because our home and sorrounding create a solid base for a pleased life. The area invites you to enjoy clean air, flowing water, calmness and tranquility to gather strength that we wish to use for good.
Our vision: We want to create a home of good feelings in which we live and share common values. Through participating in everyone’s life and by experiencing projects or communal events we want to get in an empathic connection with each other. We establish a family friendly environment and we use resources consciously. While silence and retreat find their space, we also want to give inspiration to the world with some events we offer.
The river is flowing – be part of it!

We are a community which create, share and enliven transformative places in Northern Germany. We want to take responsibility for the crises of our time. We develop structures of solidarity, ecological projects and lively coexistence in order to bring about social transformation.
We are a group from young to old, from the north and the south. We do agriculture, permaculture, yoga, IT and seminars. We enjoy working with people, with nature, with our hands, with our words, with digital content and with community-building tools. We are teachers and learners. We study ourselves, our relationships and our vision. We share our thoughts, feelings and skills. To make our organization lively, creative and at eye level we use sociocracy.
We currently have many projects like our community supported agriculture and a food cooperative with focus on regional and ecological use of resources. We also offer seminars on permaculture, sustainability, sociocracy, anti-discrimination, and more. Other projects include an IT association that advocates for digital sovereignty and a tiny house workshop. A therapy center, a kindergarten or a courtyard café are part of our vision and can be created in the future.

Tel. +49-(0)33205-46599, email: , website: www.wohnmichel.org
Existing since 2014, near Potsdam/Berlin, ca. 40 members, 1,6 ha of land
In Michendorf (southwest of Berlin/adjacent to Potsdam) we have built an intergenerational and ecological community housing project.
We are currently (8/2021) 50 adults and 37 children. On a plot of about 1.7 ha we have built 5 ecological and sustainable houses. As shared rooms and areas we have available: in each house a communal flat with bath, laundry rooms, cellar, sheds for bicycles, tools and gardening equipment, outdoor playgrounds/space for children, workshops, an organic kitchen garden, a fireplace, a rest garden, a volleyball court and a sauna. A separate community hall is currently being planned.
Our solidarity and the sharing of resources lead to synergies in many areas, such as childcare and support for elderly residents. A sustainable and mindful way of living with each other characterises our life together.

Serenity is a place where we grow and cook food from our own garden. Our garden spreads over many terraces and gets more and more full of plants and trees. Following the idea of permaculture we close circles as much as possible. We opitimize our eco footprint and run the finca in harmony with nature.
Following these principles we build many things on a creative way from some used stuff. We run a solar system with power outlets in all buildings on the finca. Our watering infrastructure is build by many tousand meters of watering pipes and different solutions for different situations. We run a biogas system for producing our own cooking gas. In our killn-pit we produce our own charocal. We produce our own compost and with a worm farm liquid fertilizer. Things like compost toilets and graywater clearing are important peaces in this big puzzle.
