There are many examples of wonderful community-based sustainable developments from all over the world that are inspiring our thinking as we design Glassworks:
Regen Villages
in the Netherlands have caught the imagination of the sustainable building community. With a focus on food production and self-sufficient energy and waste management systems, this 100 home ecovillage is breaking ground this summer
The Mount
in Peterborough, historic home of the Sisters of St. Joseph, is a successful mixed use affordable housing project and community food hub which was designed to enrich the lives of the residents with a social services hub focused on growing health through good food and community building.
