Living in the Future dvd
Following the hugely successful internet mini series on Lammas, Undercurrents have produced this 60 minute documentary that looks at how life has been for the ecovillage pioneers as they have endeavoured to create a new lifestyle for themselves in West Wales.
The film is both light-hearted and moving, funny and serious – but most importantly it takes a good look at the reality beyond the dream.

From the tribal anarchy of Tipi Valley through to the ordered structure of Brithdir Mawr, this book charts the roots of the Lammas Ecovillage project.

Paul Wimbush shares his truth in an epic journey spanning two decades and provides a rare insight into the world of alternative communities in South-West Wales. It is a story of vision and hope that describes an emerging land-based culture growing in strength and power.
