- Eco-Village Tour with Albert Bates The Farm www.thefarm.org is a spiritual intentional community in Summertown, Tennessee, based on principles of nonviolence and respect for the Earth. The Farm was founded in 1971 by Stephen Gaskin and 320 San Francisco hippies. Earth Day with Albert Bates - The focus of this eco tour video-pod is on the Ecovillage Training Center, a learning center for sustainability founded by Albert Bates. The Ecovillage Training Center is a living workshop environment where you can learn organic food production, natural building, permaculture and how to create and live in harmony within the means of nature. This video pod is an educated walkthrough intended to create a window into some of these eco methodologies and green technologies as well as thoughts and ideas by Albert regarding the creation of an ecovillage and the need to scale down our wants and needs.

I love the straw bale wall system of the greenhouse. Totally beautiful.
I love the Farm! Can't wait to go back for another visit.
I like the fact that you were able to take the bank of the housing equation! I would love to put my artist ideas in action and build a cobb or adobe cottage.
totally wicked video !! did he say how big his property is ? its relay amazing
deep ecology :]
I am in the process of developing an eco village. I first want to get as much info as possible. I interesting that I do not see to many ecovillages using sterling engines combined with the solar power array.
@ABCarlough it simply doesnt. if they are a bit wet. if you ever had such thing in your hands there would not be this question. i live in vilage outside of city, and in 20 years i do nbot remember anywhere be such incident
YEsterday I thought about turning my property into a small commune and utilize permaculture principles in the surrounding area.
@gwhtf4 no they dont eat meat there
I LOVE YOU! Lets talk about the world and life and the options we can use to help the people on the world who need places like this to go to! I am good at advertisement, and I can help you, us, in anyway needed, Let me know what I can do here in Canada. ALBERT YOUR THE MAN! SEE YA AT THE BEACH! Lmao peace to you and ours!
6:23 coolth... haha. thats awesome. Sounds like something I would say.
Too bad about the WiFi.
It's being shown now that the E.M. Radiation from WiFi is damaging to humans
Fantastic video and lifestyle !
Sorry, bit jealous here :-)
ive noticed that the large majority of these eco communities are in the warmer climates.
so sad u think carbon dioxide is causing climate change, nice village
The unassuming shall heal the earth . . .
BL*M
Wow, this is the first time I've been back to the Farm since I lived there back in the 70's! It was wonderful to get inspired with ideas from you! Thanks so much!
@highskilledsibby
No misunderstanding. Dont get to in your head about it the word and or concept. While you sound RIGHT! listen to yourself, be smart! Something bigger here for you.
@ABCarlough I bought 30 bales wh/straw to help warm my greenhouse this winter not even a whiff of smoke! in fact it is steamy in there. The herbs look as if it is summer. There are kneehigh wheat plants everywhere that I have been juicing. Not sure if the tropical trees made it yet that will be evident (or not) in a couple months... all depends on if the freezing temps in the soil got past the bales... as they start to decay I am going to use them for strawbale planters. WIN-WIN lol
Wonderful. The time has come to do without the mortgage. Hurray for you all, holding onto the values of earthfriendly holistic living. Teach us more!
The sad thing is, that the more this kind of living catches on, the higher the chance that this sort of thing will be requlated out of being. The powerful wont make as much money if everyone were to live like this. its sad.
do u think there would be lots of misquitos in those little water areas
Awesome,Beautiful farm, this is how many more people should live.
great video, thanks for posting
probably, but you could add fish that eat the bugs.
Beautiful, and very intelligent and loveing!
This is a great tour of the ecovillage ... I love it there!
Living roofs are the coolest thing ever.
Depending on the people there!
