Cloughjordan Ecovillage, founded in 1999, is Ireland’s first ecovillage.
Our aim is to serve as a model of sustainable living, that can be an education, enterprise, research and service resource for all. We work to; minimise pollution to the air, water and land; demonstrate a new approach to rural regeneration; facilitate systems whereby people can create local and sustainable work; and provide for the cultural, artistic and non-material needs of the residents of the village and surrounding community.
