The Harmony Eco-Village

Eco Village

A Village of Voices, Workshops, & Technologies for a Conscious, Greener World

In the four decades since our inception in 1978 Harmony Festival has been a leader in bringing to awareness to important environmental issues, holding space for educational experiences and fostering leading-edge insights into global ecological, social, and spiritual issues that define our times. The Eco-Village at Harmony Festival is a community service and activation portal that assists thousands in learning new hands-on skills, delivers the latest and most pertinent information from cutting-edge speakers and workshops, showcases educational, green, & holistic exhibits, and provides real-time community building opportunities for restoring our ecosystems, culture, consciousness and the planet. As the Greening of America gains momentum in public consciousness, we are integrating our Eco-Village offerings to create an entire holistic village that supports all the important aspects necessary to create a fully functional state of integrated awareness of mind, body, spirit, action, and environment.

This year's Harmony Ecovillage is co-produced by Living Mandala in collaboration with The California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) and Yoga Tree yoga studios - a trio of the leading holsitic ecological, alternative education, health, and wellness organizations in the Bay Area. In this dynamic space created to uplift your mind, body & spirit, you will discover a stimulaitng array of educational resources, interact with top educators and insructors, and tap into to an eclectic variety of personal and planetary development tools.

Wisdom Stage
Featuring cutting-edge speakers and comprehensive panels with top specialists on important issues, the Wisdom Stage delivers vital information and tools for the cultivation of knowledge, practice, and integrated awareness of mind, body, spirit, environment, and action. All of these elements come together to create vehicles for individuals, communities and organizations to create transformation and postive results in themselves, each other, and the world.
