We're creating a unique habitat which includes cohousing, organic agriculture, cottage industries, an education center, and natural areas, preserving and restoring over 80% of the land as green space. The residential component of EVI will be comprised of 3-5 tightly clustered cohousing communities surrounding a village green.
