<div><br>I have spent the past few months visiting Kew Ecovillage daily, an ecovillage on an empty block in the middle of an urban environment, and it looks like a template the hackerspaces community can work within to live without money in a healthy caring world. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you are not in the London area, you can adopt the model below to expand your hackerspace into a village like the one in Kew. That would be wonderful. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
