Ecoburbia – Sustainable Education Services

Ecoburbia’s intention is to create more sustainable, connected and resilient communities. We do this by providing exciting and motivating educational programs based on sound behaviour change theory. Our home, as an urban community and microfarm, is a living demonstration of our intention that we share with others. So what does that mean? Ecoburbia is part urban infill development, where we have converted one house into four self-contained living units, tripling the population density without adding to the house’s footprint. Ecoburbia is part urban farm with chickens, goats, compost and fruit trees, plus a large shared veggie patch. Ecoburbia is part demonstration sustainable house, with cutting edge energy systems, water collection and dispersal systems and innovative passive solar design. Ecoburbia is part educational opportunity and community hub, with regular tours, workshops, films and other community events.
