Site & construction
Modular frames, foundations, on-site labour

Help fund a verified eco-living village combining modular housing, renewable energy and community green space.
Housing in this region has become unreachable for the people who keep it running — the bakers, the teachers, the carers. GreenHouse gives 14 households a place to live with shared infrastructure, a market garden and a workshop. It's small enough to actually finish, big enough to matter. Backers don't get equity — they get a credit they can spend at the village, a record of helping it happen, and quarterly proof of where the money went.
GreenHouse Eco Village is a 14-home community build outside Zurich, designed for low-impact living and shared space. Modular timber-frame homes sit on a four-hectare site that includes a working market garden, a shared workshop, and a renewable-energy plant covering 100% of on-site needs. Every backer is supporting a real, permitted, on-paper-and-on-site build — not a concept.
The public budget remains visible through delivery. Material changes must be explained in the build record.

Review is not a promise of success. These are the current delivery risks and the operator's mitigation plan.
Construction projects can shift. Our buffer assumes 4–6 weeks of weather risk during winter.
10% reserve buffer held against milestone variance.
Modular frames depend on a single primary supplier. A backup is qualified but adds 8% to material cost.

“We've spent seven years figuring out how to build housing that's actually good for the land it sits on. GreenHouse Eco Village is the build we've been working toward.”
