Insightful and very informative public tour. Learned a lot about the community, the roots, and the history. Enjoyed the conversation along with an opportunity to sit back at the end and chat to residents over lunch they themselves kindly prepared for us. Got a lot of the morning. Recommend the public tour for anyone wishing to learn more about these neighbourhoods.
We stayed there for a memorial weekend for my sister who used to live there and died twenty years ago.nWe stayed in the guest room in the common house building, which was basic, but clean and tidy. The same with the bathroom next door, but it had plenty of railings, which was great for my husband, who has problems with his balance. We could also use the kitchen and dining room in the common house. Friday night we had dinner with my niece who has recently moved into a unit at Earthsong and my nephew. Saturday night there was a shared meal at the common house which they have twice a week, for those who want to go, so we joined in.nSunday we had a housewarming lunch at the common house for my niece and their flatmate, with about 30 odd attending. It was lovely and sunny, so we all sat at tables and chairs outside and had a lovely afternoon. After lunch, we had a tour of Earthsong. There are 32 houses there and a tiny house near the front of the property, occupied by about 67 people of all ages. There are are gardens around the rows of semi detached houses. There are also a few bits of lawn and jungle gym and swing for the children plus an old playhouse, and a pond at the back of the property.nOn Sunday night we had a memorial dinner and shared a video, slides, photos and memories all at the common house. We had a wonderful time there. If you want to see more about the philosophy and building of the place you can google Earthsong Econeighbourhood.
i went to an open day and was blown away by the beauty of the place. Most residents had thriving gardens and the rammed earth and solid timber buildings were like an art gallery - loved it
Went to a public tour and found it very interesting. A different way to live in the city.
Love the environment of this place, super friendly, relaxing and the fragrance of the place is so clean and fresh :
