About Natutarian Community

The Natutarian Eco-village Community is the coming together of environmentally sensitive, health conscious, compassionate people with the ambition, intent, and passion to preserve and regenerate a small piece of earth, and make it their self-sustainable home along with other living beings.

The community aims to achieve self-sustainability and have least dependence on the outside commercial and political world, that is increasingly unpredictable and complex. It also aims to promote and exemplify regenerative agricultural practices, soil building, integrated Permaculture Food Forests, restoring the natural biodiversity and practicing a completely natural lifestyle, in order to re-evolve the lost co-existence with nature.

As an old saying goes, Nature is both mother and earth. By working with and for nature, we aim to feel the bliss and abundance that Nature offers for all its earthly beings.

This endeavor would have co-founders and residents co-exist peacefully and guide themselves with free-will and free flowing energy, in a collaborative and harmonious way.

The Location – Sindhudurg (Goa – Maharashtra Border)

The first Natutarian Eco-village Community is based in Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra, situated in the naturally biodiverse Western Ghats of India, recognized internationally as the Biodiversity Hotspot of the world, for their rich flora and fauna, and still just one hour away from the vibrancy, diverse natural attractions and pristine beaches of Goa.

Based in the Southern Konkan region, Sindhudurg is known for its scenic beaches, waterfalls and mountains, and has abundant natural resources, a remarkably rich wildlife and birdlife, and a coastline dotted with palm groves, Cashew, Coconut, Mango, Jackfruit, Kokam, and Areca Palmtrees and many other native and thriving plant species.

Goa is less than 1 hour away from the region, known for its popular beaches, glistening waterfalls, a diversity of dense, lush green forests, precious rivers, wildlife sanctuaries and national parks, and exotic flora and fauna. The most offbeat tourist attraction for the world, Goa attracts the creative lot – who call it home – adding more vibrancy to the alternative space and vibe that it offers!

This makes a perfect location for the natural communal living in the Natutarian Eco-village Community, and enriching, protecting and thriving with the other natural species, as nature intended all natural beings to live in.

The journey thus far…

The Natutarian Eco-village Community is a budding, thriving, evolving place that is soon set to be home to a close-knit ecosystem of nature-driven humans, other earthlings, plants, and nature in all its untainted hues.

Since the last few years, a group of Natutarians have been collectively envisioning living a free, self-sufficient, sustainable life – of regenerative living in free, open spaces, natural free-flowing water, growing fresh, local organic food, living in ecological homes, and a lot of vibrant, fun, buzzing life, away from the cities, while sharing the space with other species. 

Thereafter, started the journey of land research, where we got into every minute detail of the land parcels in consideration. After visiting atleast 25 different sitesto scout for land in different regions in India, and examining numerous aspects of the land, a major milestone of our dream came to fruition in mid-2022, when we finally shortlisted and jointly acquired the community land, also looking for more likeminded members for the community.

Situated close to the scenic Western Ghats, in the Sindhudurg region of Maharashtra, the area is centrally situated close to Goa and Sawantwadi Town, and yet, is in the midst serene surroundings, perfect for a natural community set-up like ours. The reality hit many people hard, after witnessing the lockdowns, the scare of the pandemic, the harsh realities of food scarcity, issues with chemically laden, genetically modified (GMO) food, movement restriction, the loss of jobs and income generation through external means. It was then that many realized that truly free, blissful future can only be in a natural free space, with self-sufficiency at many levels and least dependence on the outside world, in the company of like-minded people and all other natural beings, at a place like Natutarian Community!

On the course of this gratifying natural journey, these are the next steps we will be commencing with soon:

  • Fencing across land boundaries
  • Soil enrichment with nitrogen fixing plants
  • Setting up water management systems
  • Solar power set-up
  • In-house Compost making
  • Plantation (fruit trees, other fruits, vegetables and herbs)
  • Common Community Facility Buildings
