Welcome to Festiville

A Community Beyond the Ordinary

 

FestiVille, is more than just a place to live. We're pioneering a new lifestyle, one that embraces shared creativity, and regenerative, inter-generational living.

 

With paths meandering over seasonal creeks and food growing along the way, the 'village' will have individual spaces with epic views, spring water, electric or solar and a parking area. Each homesite will have the ability to grow food or build a small shed or greenhouse. There will be a common garden in the middle of the village as well as a park for playing or gathering that includes a small water feature and play structure. 

 

Amenities to be available for the village:

• Maker’s Space and Community Tool Shed

• Hot Springs Healing Center

• Farm School

• Movement Space

• Community Kitchen

• 'Tea house/coffee house'

• Outdoor Gathering Spaces

• Community Garden

• Events Space

• Playground

• Eventually a school for kids onsite

• 30+ acres of shared wild space

Statement from our developer Common Grounding:

​

The FestiVille project aims to create a regenerative, creative, and sustainable village that fosters community, innovation, and ecological awareness. By stewarding land and building affordable, intergenerational eco-communities, FestiVille seeks to address affordable housing needs while providing opportunities for entrepreneurship, creativity, and education. Juniper Springs is our flagship tiny house village that incorporates an Innovation Incubator Maker Space, an Educational Agroecology Demonstration Farm, and a hotsprings healing center. The concept of a tiny house village is an adaptive solution to address housing needs, promote sustainability, and foster a sense of community.
