Afterlee Ecovillage has now commenced Round 2 of land sales as key infrastructure works begin to take shape. This next stage of development marks an exciting milestone for the community, with several homesites currently available for new members.
One of the unique features of Afterlee is its connection to the old primary school on-site, which the community envisions slowly transforming into a vibrant new learning space. The village is particularly seeking young families who are inspired to help co-create this school, weaving education with regenerative living, creativity, and community values.
As the project evolves, governance is also shifting. With the support of co-founder Shane Sylvanspring (Planning Regenerative Communities) gradually stepping back, the community is preparing to take on greater responsibility for self-governing and decision-making. This marks an important step in the long-term resilience and autonomy of the village.
On the ground, the focus for 2025 is on developing essential infrastructure to support the incoming homesites. Works are underway to build roads, install a microgrid for renewable energy, and establish sustainable wastewater systems. These foundations are paving the way for a thriving, low-impact community that is deeply connected to the land.
Afterlee Ecovillage is more than a housing project, it is an opportunity to be part of a pioneering community that values cooperation, ecological design, and intergenerational connection. Whether you are a family, an individual, or a couple looking to live more regeneratively, Afterlee offers a chance to co-create a future together.For those interested in learning more, the community welcomes visitors for site tours and conversations about membership.
