Exploring ways of alternative sustainable living – since 2008
Bellbunya eco-community was established in 2008 to explore ways to create a re-localised and sustainable future. Our “4-bottomline” approach includes: (1) personal growth, (2) social sustainability, (3) economic sustainability, and (4) environmental sustainability.
Caring for the Earth
Our approach to caring for the Earth uses permaculture principles, including organic growing, bushland regeneration and Syntropic farming.
Team building, conflict resolution & more
We employ a range of group process skills and techniques for group facilitation, collaborative decision making, team building, conflict resolution and project management.
Learn & Grow
We are developing processes and structures to enable us to function effectively and to continue to learn and grow – both as a grass roots permaculture community and as individuals.
We support sustainable enterprises that develop the healthy interplay of relationships with our environment and each other.
