About the land
Facts about the land:
Location: Ninigori village, Lagodekhi Municipality, Kakheti region. Approximately 2.5 hours from Tbilisi, which is easily accessible via asphalt road.
Size: 6.5 hectares and includes a sizable ~1000m2 cattle farm building.
Infrastructure: Essential amenities are available such as gas, electricity, water (including a functioning irrigation system), and internet access. It is also conveniently located near school, shops and provides a direct connection to the village.
Climate: The climate in the area around Lagodekhi is sub-tropical (kiwi, watermelon, citruses, grapes, wheat, different types of herbs and vegetables are growing, and time to time you can even find a banana tree), it’s warm in summertime but the fresh mountain air ensures a great balance between dryness and humidity.
“This place has everything necessary to create an ecovillage in Georgia. It is both beautiful and convenient. It would be challenging to find a better location.”

Water Access: We get drinking water straight from the mountains through a simple water supply system. A small stream flows along the edge of the forest, providing water for irrigation and fun. Additionally, there is an artificial pond on the property.
Future Community Garden and Small Forest: The land exhibits remarkable biodiversity. We have two garden areas where we grow vegetables such as herbs, salads, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, pumpkins, potatoes and many other delicious organic food almost year round. There is a fruit forest with a lot of hazelnut trees, as well as various fruit trees. The soil has been enriched by cows grazing on it. The small forest on the left side primarily consists of acacia trees, and we are starting a re-wildering project in 2026.
Building/Potential Community Center: We already partly renovated the large farm building and use it as a community center and guest house. There is a well equipped kitchen and renovated social space. We stay in tents in the barn, and during winter in the heated living room. We have a beautiful urine diverting dry toilet inside and a solar shower for summer use. More bedrooms and a proper bathroom are in the planning for 2026.
