A team of designers, builders, developers, & creatives, worldwide committed to creating Festi*Ville as an incubator for regenerative community.

Common Grounding (development association) is creating regenerative villages that foster community, innovation, and ecological awareness. By stewarding land and building affordable, intergenerational eco-communities, Common Grounding seeks to address affordable housing needs while providing opportunities for entrepreneurship, creative expression, and education.

Vision Statement: Stewarding land to create regenerative, creative, communal living spaces for community to thrive.

Mission Statement: We help creative land-stewards build affordable, intergenerational eco-communities in which to work, play, and live.
