The Community Timeline
The Ecovillage Findhorn Community Timeline
This is an incomplete list of events. To make the list more manageable, we’ve grouped the history of the Community into decades. We’ve named them – but of course there are dozens of different titles we could have found. This grouping is as arbitrary as any other attempt to simplify complex information. In any event, we hope you enjoy following the flow of history.
Please Contact Us if you have suggestions for improvements, particularly if we have made errors or missed out crucial information.
This section of the website is looking for a new focaliser. If you feel called to join our dynamic team of volunteers, please Contact Us.
