Land Vision
We imagine a land full of food, flowers and trees, a place of small and infinite walkable ways and natural buildings. As the first Vegoa project we choose to make self-sustainability our priority and want to produce more than 100% of what we use. We want it to be a place that serves an example of a cruelty free world where people help each other and all the animals. A place that can receive people for events and health holidays.
Reasons we choose this land
There are so many reasons that is hard to choose the first one to list; it’s beautiful with valleys and plan hill tops and perfect conditions to farm and store water. Few minutes by bicycle to the beautiful and unspoiled west coast of Algarve. 1 million square Meters of paradise.
Self-sustainability
The theme of Vegoa first land project is self-sustainability. After analysing other Eco-villages we learned that none reaches food and other resources independence. We think we can do it with this proposed plot. We plan to build natural houses using local and widely available materials and prioritise food productions trying to produce more than the residents can consume looking at other needs like clothing and linen production using plant fibres.

Vegan Hills will be divided in several Villages trying different Social Organisation Techniques
