Bioregionalism is a concept that goes beyond national boundaries, but rather is a political, cultural, and ecological system or set of views based on naturally defined areas called bioregions, similar to ecoregions. Bioregions are defined through physical and environmental features, including watershed boundaries and soil and terrain characteristics. Bioregionalism stresses that the determination of a bioregion is also a cultural phenomenon, and emphasizes local populations, knowledge, and solutions. This group is for those interested in getting together with the intention of reinhabiting the local bioregion.

The basic goals of a bioregional approach are as follows:

1. restore and maintain natural systems,
2. develop sustainable means for satisfying basic human needs such as food, water, energy, shelter, resource materials, waste handling, and cultural information,
3. create and support a broad range of activities which make it possible to fit better into the life-place.

The bioregional approach is intended to simultaneously include many aspects of the natural and human life in a community. It will have a different emphasis depending on the conditions and location of the place. Creating a sustainable bioregional city requires active participation by both government agencies and private citizens. Involvement of everyone is necessary for the ecological survival and success of future human communities.
