Millares

We visted Millares in December, 2011: http://oseeurope.org/2011/10/millares-visit-os-technology/ but we found out that there are legal issues with one of the lands there and we are reconsidering this choice.

Buenache de la Sierra, Cuenca

Josef has offered his land near the village of Buenache de la Sierra (about 15km from Cuenca city) for OSE type activities. If a Spanish cooperative legal entity is formed for OSE Spain he would be very happy to explore gifting/ leasing the land to that entity. Cuenca is easy to get to from Madrid/ Valencia (there are regular buses and trains, and a new fast train). There are photos of the land and the surrounding area here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/uniteddiversity/tags/buenache/ and some videos here: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=jdaviescoates+buenache There is a plan to have "Building Man" Festivals on the land. The first one is due to happen this September, 2012 (see http://buidingman.org ). Contact: josef (at) uniteddiversity (dot) com for more info. Anyone is welcome to go and visit the land whenever they like. Josef's Dad, Jon, lives nearby in the village (Buenache de la Sierra) and has lived in Cuenca for 20 years. Jon is a skilled cabinet maker, has lots of tools and the use of a workshop in Buenache. He also knows pretty much everyone. If you are in the area give him a call on +34 646 507 212. Another old friend of the family, Emil - who has lived in Cuenca since he was 7, also lives in Buenache (next door to Jon) and will be there for the next 5 years at least. He is an experienced builder and stone mason and has started collecting sabina tree trunks from a recent forest fire to build with. He will soon be keeping some chickens on the land for eggs and so will be visiting their regularly.
