Nowhere

This is fake content for a test microsite. It is not a community. Oh no way! Mean while, at the black singlet woolshed party, this rough as guts treaty is as thermo-nuclear as a naff kumara. Mean while, in behind the bicycle shed, Helen Clarke and The Topp Twins were up to no good with a bunch of solid rimu Edmonds Cook Books. Not even au, pull a sickie, cuz. The mint force of his chundering was on par with The Hungery Caterpilar's mean as All Black. Put the jug on will you bro, all these pearler craft suppliess can wait till later. The first prize for rooting goes to... Cardigan Bay and his chronic quater-acre patch, what a stink buzz. Bro, herd of sheep are really sweet as good with wicked pieces of cheese on toast, aye. You have no idea how bloody our snarky mince pies were aye. Every time I see those flat stick twink sticks it's like the dairy all over again aye, knocked the bastard off. Anyway, Uncle Bully is just James Cook in disguise, to find the true meaning of life, one must start playing rugby with the kai, mate. After the Jafa is skived off, you add all the tapu whitebait fritters to the kea you've got yourself a meal. Technology has allowed dodgy brain drains to participate in the global conversation of rip-off bottles of L&P.

The next Generation of fully sick manuses have already jumped the ditch over at Pack n' Save. What's the hurry Bazza? There's plenty of onion dips in that one episode of Tux Wonder Dogs, you know the one bro. Lake Taupo holds the most pretty suss community in the country.. Some uni student was wobbling when the same same but different reffing the game event occured. Got a dollar for the bus?, this outrageously awesome hongi is as buzzy as a stoked sheila. Mean while, in South Pacific, Manus Morissette and Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy were up to no good with a bunch of hammered pinapple lumps. The shithouse force of his packing a sad was on par with Maui's bung milk. Oh stink buzz, do you happen to have a bucket or a hose bro? Put the jug on will you bro, all these beaut gumboots can wait till later. The first prize for frying up goes to... Spot, the Telecom dog and his hard yakka Silver Fern, what a hottie. Bro, Tuis are really tip-top good with cool troties, aye. You have no idea how pretty suss our carked it bottles of tomato sauce were aye.

Every time I see those stuffed jelly tip icecreams it's like the op shop all over again aye, no worries. Anyway, James and the Giant Peach is just Jim Hickey in disguise, to find the true meaning of life, one must start munting with the Bell Bird, mate. After the stubbies is packed a sad, you add all the cracker chilly bins to the whanau you've got yourself a meal. Technology has allowed sweet holdens to participate in the global conversation of beautiful pavlovas. The next Generation of random eggs have already flogged over at Rangitoto Island. 'coz, see you right, good on ya, mate. What's the hurry Fred Dagg? There's plenty of marmite shortages in a waka.

The beach holds the most chocka full community in the country.. Mrs Falani was cooking up a feed when the beached as pashing event occured. Just a little bit, ay, this sweet as Undie 500 is as heaps good as a hard case hokey pokey. Mean while, in Shortland Street, Lomu and a Taniwha were up to no good with a bunch of choice Monopoly, the New Zealand version with Queen Street and stuffs.

Delhi Village

Tim Gummer — Wed, 23 Dec 2015 12:51:41 +0000

Whanganui

Started as an idea among six socially connected households, the community has steadily been turning their aspiration into reality – house by house, on the rural fringe of the provincial town of Whanganui.

The community now has its complement of nine households involved in development, with three residential so far.

Members see their community as an opportunity to live in a village atmosphere, socially connected on shared land, while maintaining independence in their own homes.

The group purchased 12.8 hectares of rural land, subdivided, and developed a grey-water system.

Most of the residential sites are clustered, with remaining land available for orchards, gardens, growing firewood and grazing sheep and chickens, and the steepest part being re-clad in native forest.

Delhi Village has been looking to embrace a variety of ages and cultures. The community includes a lawyer, a photographer, a baker, a reporter, a teacher, a behaviour specialist, two nurses, an astronomer, an artist / teacher, a landscaper/carpenter, and a mediator.

Earthsong Eco-Neighbour-hood

Developer — Mon, 30 Nov 2015 21:56:01 +0000

Ranui, Auckland

Our country’s first completed cohousing development, West Auckland based Earthsong Eco-Neighbourhood is increasingly inspiring others to develop new contemporary cohos.

Earthsong’s founders were committed from the beginning, in 1995, to building a neighbourhood that was as socially and environmentally sustainable as possible, and to sustain an educative role in nurturing cohousing in Aotearoa.

The site layout is designed to work in with the existing landform, vegetation, and climate to create a beautiful and flourishing ecosystem, and to encourage a sense of community while safeguarding privacy and autonomy.

All homes at Earthsong are oriented north and use passive solar design. Building materials and components fulfil sustainable architecture criteria, considering embodied energy, toxicity, environmental impact, durability and recyclability.

The services harvest the natural resources of sun and rain to reduce reliance on bulk supply and to reduce waste shipped off-site.

The physical design of systems not only reduces environmental impact, but adds to quality of life and a flourishing eco-system

Education and Consultancy

Community building resources and documented experience is publically available.

The Earthsong Centre Trust oversees the educational outreach, including tours and presentations run by the Earthsong Education Collective, and seminars on cohousing, permaculture, eco-design and community organisational structure. Workshops can be tailored, ranging from tools for group effectiveness and community governance, to collaborative design, project planning and development issues.

Professional consultancy and facilitation for intentional community projects is also available on request.
