"Live simply that others may simply live." Mohandas Gandhi

Katywil, an eco-village named for my grandparents, Kate and Will Cole, is envisioned as a community of people who treasure the beauty of this land and its subtle pleasures, who wish to simplify their lives, and who relish the company of others.

Our goal is to maximize energy efficiency and ultimately, to produce our own energy. Katywil’s woods, orchards, stream and gardens will provide not only beauty, but also the joys of a bountiful harvest and healthy food, coupled with the peace and quiet of an Arcadia nestled in the hills of Colrain. Katywil is a vision of how life might be.
