​Springhouse: A Living Example 
​

In 2013, from the rich community and landscape of Floyd, Virginia, and the care of those who deeply longed for a more vital and creative culture, Springhouse emerged. Now, with a vibrant and devoted community to tend to it, Springhouse thrives.

Springhouse is an intergenerational learning community where we build regenerative culture by creating and sharing vitality-centered education. Springhouse has a day school for teens and an adult development program including a 2-year certificate program in Regenerative Cultural Design and Practice beginning in Fall 2022.  Springhouse also offers opportunities to practice vitality-centered cultural and educational design through Sourced Design. 

​From the place-based, long-term experimentation at Springhouse, Sourced Design emerged and through the Sourced Design Network, Springhouse shares the five design principles globally. The unique Springhouse curriculum, organizational structure, and generative economic and communications model emerged as a result of practicing these principles daily for eight years.
