Wurruk’an is a small community of people living in West Gippsland, Victoria, Australia. For the last few years they have been trying to push the boundaries of environmental practice by exploring what it means to live in a deeply sustainable way. So far the community has built many demonstration “tiny houses” using a combination of reclaimed materials, cob, “Earthship style” rammed earth and super-adobe.
As well as constructing these small buildings, the group has retrofitted an old farm shed into a cosy living space, developed an ever-growing organic vegetable garden, hosted many working bees and workshops, experimented with low-energy alternatives and taken part in a documentary film entitled “A Simpler Way: Crisis as Opportunity” (see below).
Life on the property involves taking part in community life, growing food, caring for the small flock of ducks and geese, sharing in the chores and gradually developing the property as a functional demonstration site. There is no rent to be paid & food and utility bills are shared. Check out the documentary about this sustainable living community below…
