Join us for a tour of a unique ecovillage in west Eugene, led by its creator, "natural builder" Robert Bolman. (Rob says, "The more the merrier," so feel free to come even if you haven't RSVPed.)
Maitreya houses several dozen people on adjoining lots at the corner of Broadway and Almaden, one block west of Taylor. It includes straw-bale structures, a cob guest cottage, gardens, a courtyard with a fire pit, and much more!
From its web page: "Welcome to the web presence of Maitreya Ecovillage, a community of builders, gardeners, foodies, herbalists, activists, academics, musicians, artists, and just plain folks....
"It’s an ecovillage because we try to support each other in living lives that respond to the ecological crisis. Often there are so many projects and ideas happening in one space, things can get a little wild at times!"
