Thank you!
Permaculture is the future, bless you all!
Nice to see this finished. ☺️🌱🌴👍🙌🙏
Narrator: "One day, Fruit Haven would like to achieve world domination." I don't think they said that haha
Maybe on older tf videos we said that a few times..

It looks so healthy and I think community and diverse nuture around might heal many people - let us all covert farm land back to nature. And reduce our consumption in exchange and start a happier Lifestyle:)
Congrats!
Awesome guys looks

Give up your attachments give up your confusion and fly to that space that's beyond all illusion you are forever pure you are forever true and the dream of this world can never touch you❤ one of my favorite songs
Have u got my spot up high by Kevin yet? I’m ready ?!!!! Love ❤️ the video ! Miss Ecuador and u guys! Lots of ❤️ LOVE 💕 and kisses !!!
There should be lots for sale up there at FH3. If not now then in a couple of months. ☺️
We’ll be neighbors. 👍
I would love to live like this.
Wow.No words🥰😍💚🔥💪🏼😇
It’s beautiful but the bugs would drive me crazy!
Awesome, congrats to y'all! Once these stupid lockdowns are over I'll come and build a house on my FH2 lot!
low stress, good food, lean and strong
Were there any interactions with the indigenous citizens and if so, did they benefit in any way from them in their establishment there?
We have hundreds of indigenous Shuar as our neighbors.
We've learned a lot from them. Also we share rare fruit tree genetics with them and help to improve community infrastructure that benefits them (like the bridge and public path.)
TBH the main reason they appreciate us is we provide a lot of full-time employment. Many of the men can now support their families due to having a steady job rather than occasional sporadic work. For them, dignity and financial stability is priceless. As in the United States, there are issues with poverty and alcoholism in the indigenous communities here. Turns out removing their nomadic way of life and giving them European vices was not such a good idea. But, with economic opportunity they have more options in life.
@@PeterCsere thank you for the information, which was absent in the above video but may have been included in others. Keep up the good work 👏.
Me and my friend have been raw vegans for the past 2 years and we are thinking about moving from Europe to a fruit village for good. We are 25 years old, educated, hardworking, with a budget of 5-6k €. Would it be possible with hard work to be part of your community? Thank you in advance 😇
Of course! check out our website www.fruithaven.org/
Looks amazing. WIsh that Jason could have been depicted as more of a badass.
40k with selling canna. Thats badass
❤❤🎉nice
Hi Peter and fellow Fruit Haven participants. Congrats on your great documentary. It was mentioned that you have your own internal currency. That would be good to know about in greater detail. Also, with the problem with those nasty flies, I'm curious if you 1.) have a biogas digester, and 2.) if you could have a slow controlled burn-off of the excess methane combined with a bug zapper where the flying insect is attracted by the Co2 and then get zapped - (lots of RUclips videos about it - see ruclips.net/video/KW_oMchq4FU/видео.html ). With all of the "contributors" that you have at Fruit Haven, and especially because you don't cook (not using methane for cooking) - due to your preference for raw foods - you could be attracting and zapping those flying insects 24/7 and making your environment a lot easier on your residents. Keep up the great work. - Jim from Phoenix
The biting insects are not really a problem. Just new people who have been around 1-2 months have been bothered by them. The rest of us are fine ;-P The gnats stop going after you once your blood smells like everyone else's.
@@PeterCsere Thanks. Sounds similar to the reaction to No-See-Ums elsewhere in Ecuador. Thanks again.
❤
Thanks, that was very interesting and refreshing to see e.g. producing minimal waste, working physically, living more in harmony with nature, working together, etc. The vegan thing is extreme and adding fish and livestock for a more balanced diet and joy with food (eggs, steak, yoghurt, etc.) is a good improvement. We are in Nova Scotia with a only 3 months frost free (mid June-Mid September) growing season for most vegetables. We have a lot of storms (8-100km/h) and the odd hurricane (120-150km/h). Then of course too much rain and snow/frost. However, what grows really well here in the summer time is grass. You dont want to eat grass but cattle turn grass in the most tasty and nutritious foods (steak, yoghurt, ice-cream, cheese,..). What also grows really well is potatoes and blueberries (low&highbush). If you put it all together you get a good diet that you can produce yourself. Livestock is crucial here also for fertility (manure).
Sure, in a temperate climate it's impossible. Where we are fruits and veggies produce year round :)
@@FruitHavenEcovillage Being able to grow fruit&veggies year round without expensive greenhouses, root cellars, freezers, etc. is amazing and makes life a lot easier! I have not lived there but I am pretty sure that I still would want a balanced diet with fish, eggs, steak, yoghurt,.. Its tastes so good to and brings so much joy as well. Just had lamb roast, red cabbage and fried potatoes together with blueberry wine. Yoghurt for desert. It was a fantastic meal and we enjoyed it so much. Makes for a good tasty and nutrious meal.
@@fabiancanada8876eating death and denatured food is not nutritious , but that's the programming from organized society for ya!
@@sallycrawford2729 I am very aware of what society does with people and constantly try to question and rethink things. You are delusional to think that meat is no nutritious. Turning grass (not nutritious for people) into meat, yoghurt, etc. makes a lot of sense where we live (Nova Scotia. We have been having a 15 inch snow storm for the past 2 days with temperatures around 15 Fahrenheit).
@@fabiancanada8876 Humans are in FACT Frugivores. There's Nothing delusional in the truth 🙄
there are quite a few herbs that repel insects, basil, lavender, mint, lemon thyme to name a few
This is so interesting! I'm curious, are the Fruit Haven communities in contact with any of the local indigenous peoples? With the way our European ancestors persecuted them and their way of life I feel we should always be looking to work with them in projects like this. Especially because there is so much we could learn from them and their ancestral knowledge of the land.
Yep. Next to us is a huge indigenous reserve land, hundreds of them live along the river. We are friends with many of them, and some work here full or part time doing construction or agriculture.
For the algorithm
How to connect
Strange question. But do people date within the community? You know, since people have their ”needs” If you understand me. Or is this not allowed in Fruit Haven.
Sure, why not. We want the community to grow :)
World domination? Hmm... Sounds rather ambitious. I agree with the sustainable and eco-friendly kind of living, and would be very interested to learn to grow my own food. How easy or difficult was for the founders to negotiate the buying of the first plots? And who was the previous owners? And this being in the Amazon region, aren't you all close to indigenous communities where you are?
Buying the lands was fairly easy. Just lots of paperwork.
The owners were local Ecuadorians who were selling for various reasons, mostly because they were old and had no interest in maintaining their farms anymore.
Yes we are neighboring several indigenous reserves totaling thousands of hectares. All of our neighbors are indigenous Shuar.

:)
Yes
This also for the algorithm
Thanks
Yep
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Is it true that the only way into Ecuador is to take the snake bite? I had plans to visit you.
Yes sadly so. But I think there are some ways if we really want. Was planning also to visit but found it difficult to reach there from India. And now even more so
This requirement only lasted 2 months; it was struck down quickly as the government had no interest in fighting all the court cases / lawsuits / criminal charges filed against the president. Now there is no snake bite required ;-P yay ecuador
Awesome! Maybe a bit difficult without the grid and civilization
Community hubs have electric, civilization is only over the river. There is also FH10 on that side with grid, further north closer to Terra Frutis.
@@duncanbananatyne3890 interesting
I did notice on the last video that there are marching giants (power towers) across the river, so not so isolated after all. They scar the landscape everywhere in the US now, and the power companies say they will be building far more in order to meet the needs of AI running in data centers.
🌞👍
"bradley" is a trip lol
Are there any kids in your community?
currently a baby on FH2 lot :)
Poor kid... 😢 no playmates no nothing...just half naked smelly fruitcake skeleton
-zombies....what a nice way to grow up..🙄
@@taltosryou're being incredibly judgemental and it undermines everything that you say
Wuhuu
Looks great! Ive planted a temperate fruit forest, not vegan as humans are omnivores ( i have biology degree and have lived with indigenous peoples) but to each their own, keep up the good work.
Da jungleboy!? Looks like him on the bridge.
I want to buy land and grow fruits there
Check out the available lots here: www.fruithaven.org/group-land-buys/
All the men look kind of underweight though
Who is this narrator? Hilarious
Probably some gig off Fiverr 😂.
All of you people need to start having more children ❤
Because the world isn’t overpopulated enough yet.
so is this one of those groups where some ppl walk around naked and some ppl share lovers....
We're more focused on growing fruit trees, there's many couples and most of us wear clothes around others :)
alright cool. maybe ive watched to much movies :)@@FruitHavenEcovillage
do they not interact with the local people? and learn their indigenous ways of doing things?
(or is this exclusively for white foreigners?)
Looks like they do to me, check some other videos, they employ locals, live next to and visit indigenous, who already live in their own communities so I reckon this place not as appealing to them, although no doubt they would be accepted. What ways do you mean - house building? Yeah, that would be cool, although a lot of them probably live in more modern style houses now anyway. Boat making? Think most of them ride in metal ones with motors. Clothing - that would be a bit strange, maybe disrespectful and then be criticised as cultural appropriation. Shrinking heads perhaps? :P
Have seen volunteers of different skin colours, think they have had short term Ecuadorian visitors although that might have been Terra Frutis, their sister community, there is an Ecuadorian women and child residing at Terra Frutis.
:)
Buyer beware.
i wonder how some things would work there, for example sex, are you people having sex? and also if someones who eats meat and want to raise chickens or rabbits or goats? and if someone wants to plant their own system on their land with maybe a vertical garden or some monoculture for feeding the animals? and what the locals think of this place?
Why would you want to live in this community if you wanna eat animals? Arent there enough places and communities already for that?
