Heavy Autumn rains made progress difficult for the ecovillage pioneers in Pembrokeshire, but they still built two beautiful reciprocal frame roundhouses. Here's a film about their good spirits.
Months on from being granted planning permission in 2009, the four of the Lammas families were living on site, with the other 5 families rounding up their affairs and getting ready to move. The trackways and water networks were under construction and some of the families begun building. The autumn weather was kind and whilst the weather turned colder, activity on the land began to warm up. Lammas is starting to take shape. Filmed by www.livinginthefuture.org
Paul Wimbush speaks to Cindy Harris from The Design Commission for Wales about sustainable building and why they support the Lammas Ecovillage Project. Living in the Future video series from Undercurrents highlights how people have come together to build their own homes, grow their own food, and create lively and sustainable communities. We will post one episode a week. To support the film project see www.livinginthefuture.org
