A full-scale cooperative city built on 10,000+ acres of Texas land. Eight enterprises. 15,000 residents. Every Blue Zone principle designed in from day one. Not a utopia — a blueprint.
10,000 acres allocated across 8 enterprise zones, cooperative housing, and green infrastructure.
Each enterprise is cooperatively owned, generates revenue, and creates jobs — while fulfilling a specific social and ecological function.
The productive core. Regenerative cropland, pasture, orchards, and food forests feeding the entire city. Includes the Botanical Garden & Learning Farm.
Mixed-density cooperative neighborhoods — from single-family homes to multi-family co-ops — all cooperatively owned by residents.
K–12 through post-secondary education, all integrated with the living enterprises. Students learn by doing — in the farm, the assembly plant, the market.
Cooperative manufacturing: builds the vehicles and tractors used across all enterprises, trains apprentices from the Vocational School, and sells to neighboring communities.
The city's central marketplace — a cooperative food hall, farmers market, processing facility, and distribution hub for all farm produce.
Preventative, plant-based, and community health — not a hospital, but a Blue Zone wellness campus. Moai circles, movement, purpose, and plant-forward eating built in.
Elders live in the community, not apart from it. Intergenerational care village where elders mentor students, tend gardens, and pass on knowledge.
The civic heart: cooperative bank, legal aid, media studio, arts center, town hall, and the administrative infrastructure of the cooperative city.
The city grows in deliberate phases — starting with the founding team and scaling to a full cooperative city of 15,000 over 15 years.
Core founding team arrives. Regenerative land, vocational school, and food market launch. First cooperative homes built.
Assembly plant and healing center open. Cooperative housing expands. School reaches full K–12 enrollment.
All 8 enterprises at full capacity. University established. Long-term care village complete. Exporting vehicles and produce regionally.
Every Blue Zone principle is built into the city's physical and social architecture — not as a wellness program, but as the default way of life.
Daily farm work, walking corridors, and movement woven into every enterprise.
Every resident has a role: student, farmer, builder, healer, elder mentor.
Preventative wellness, community rituals, and monthly Moai check-ins.
95% of food grown on-site, plant-based, organic, and cooperative-owned.
One-member-one-vote governance. Every resident is an owner.
Intergenerational bonds. Elders mentor youth. Moai circles meet monthly.
"None of these require a healthcare system.
All of them require a community."
