Designing a Regenerative Future
Alegría Village is a new ecological neighborhood in the hills of San Mateo, Costa Rica.
Grow Your Own Food
We all share an organic permaculture farm in the center of our community.
Our food comes from the land where we live.
Drink from the Land
Alegría is next to the crystal clear Rio Machuca.
Our water comes from natural springs on the property and an abundant underground river.
Nurture a Love of Learning
We are dedicated to hands-on, self-guided education for our children.
We support an incredible international school just down the road.
Honor Our Elders
It’s time we rethink the way we care for our elders. At Alegria, our parents and grandparents are celebrated, integrated, and supported.
Protect Our Ecosystem
As we build our community, Alegría is reforesting our 70-hectare property, protecting our natural environment, waterways, and wildlife habitats.
Live in Joy Now
Together let’s slow down, savor the present, and enjoy the richness and quality of being alive.
