Review for Dancing Rabbit, Inc., Rutledge, MO, USA
I spent a week at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage in March of 2013. There was a great deal about the community that impressed me. They faithfully adhere to their goal of a negative carbon footprint. Each member's uniqueness is valued and accepted. Nonviolent communication techniques are used to ensure that differences are settled equitably. They cooperate in everything from cooking meals, to sharing transportation, to organizing community events. They have a lot of fun in the process. Their children are smart, healthy, beautiful and well-mannered. As a visitor I didn't get to know everyone, but those I did meet were very upbeat, friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Since visiting, I have been more aware of energy consumption and have significantly reduced by electricity consumption. I hope to visit them again.
