Building the Future We Want to Live In
We're not just developers. We're residents. Our family will live in the first NeighbourWood community—proof that we believe in what we're building.
Our Mission
Create thriving, affordable communities that permanently restore native ecosystems—housing and nature flourishing together, profitably, scalably, and exportably.
Proof, Not Promises
We validate through personal commitment and measurable results before scaling. Living in our own development eliminates the credibility gap that plagues many housing developers.
Triple Bottom Line
Every decision is measured against people, planet, and profit. We prove that doing good and doing well aren't mutually exclusive—they're mutually reinforcing.
Permanent Legacy
Our woodlands are held in trust forever. Not 25 years. Not "until it's inconvenient." Forever. That's the commitment our children and grandchildren deserve.
