2023 EVI Experience Weekend
Do you want to explore what it’s like to live in an ecological community? The EVI Experience Weekend is an inside look at our award-winning ecovillage in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Through tours, workshops, social events, and hands-on learning participants get an immersive experience at our sustainable cohousing community.
Ecovillage at Ithaca is part of a global movement of people seeking to create positive solutions to the social, environmental and economic crises our planet faces. Since 1991 we have developed an award-winning ecovillage that invites you to live, learn and grow. Our mission is to promote experiential learning about ways of meeting human needs for shelter, food, energy, livelihood and social connectedness that are aligned with the long-term health and viability of Earth and all its inhabitants.
