Graton, California · Green Valley Watershed

Joyful by nature, belonging by design.

Cultivating local commons, cultures, and economies.

ReVillage is growing public spaces, local culture, and community-led businesses in West Sonoma County.

We’re showing what’s possible when we re-localize and co-create the things that matter most: from public spaces and rituals to local food and community businesses. Belonging to a place and caring for each other both feels good and grows our collective resilience.

What we're building

Flagship Projects

We pay attention to what a place actually needs, then build alongside the people already caring for it. These projects are early prototypes for a more connected, locally rooted future.
