Purchasing the Mas to the former owners.
We've decided to get to this amount since we belive it is an affordable goal, even though it wouldn't accomplish the project's total self-financing.
This amount would reduce the economic cost to a point in which the collective could assume the rest of the investment. This would mean a higher personal contribution, with all the efforts that this could carry. Therefore, the initial steps of the project would be slower and with the obstacles that having a low budget involve, but it will be enough to guarantee the project's continuity in a good way.

€ 6.000 | |

To accomplish the purchase of the space.
This amount is divided in the purchase of the property (5000€) and the notarial costs (2500€).
Getting to this amount will allow the current inhabitants of Mas del Potro not having any loan or overexertions, and the start of the project with a stipulated social capital, which is expected to be maintained once the Mas becomes a housing coperative.

Chainsaw
Around the Mas' land, there are lots dried of Mediterranean pines that have fallen down due to the latest rain and snowstorms. The situation is dangerous for the terraces and the building, but also for the Barranc del Cint enviroment since they make it easier for wild-fires to initiate and expand. The terraces serve as natural firewalling, but they need to be maintained.
With a chainsaw, appart from this, we can ensure having enough wood to keep the house warm during winter and cook in our oven.

Gas-runned brushcutter for medium surfaces
Together with the chainsaw, this is an essentail tool since minute one! The Mas is located in Barranc del Cint and humidity makes weeding a really tough job. Mostly brambles and riverside species grow vigorously invaiding the GR pathway and the building; and the most important, it increases the risk of wildfires!

This group, together with a commited community of Mas del Potro supporters and friends, has rebuilt the house from the ruins, prepared the pieces of land and given the enviroment the best amenities for inhabiting the place in a continuous and self-managed way.
Twenty years later, this first period comes to an end and we are taking over.🌱🌿
A meeting point and a place of synergy between agroecology, decentralized culture and social action:
We project the space as an excellent location for developing workshops, activities, courses and meetings which promote agroecology, food sovereignty, enviromental caring and development of networks between people.
We have a library, a workshop and a big room for hosting visits; together with different spaces with potential to host meetings, talks and trainings, both inside and outside.
*There are plenty of cultivation terraces set with driping irrigation and pens asking to be filled with live.
All of this, from a political positioning based on horizontality, ecofeminism and self-managment; welcoming all sexual, gender and affective diversities.
That's why we are interested in facilitation of group processes and community based actions, taking into account allied people and entities together with the residents of the house. Pedagogy, groups gestion and accessibility are the tools we consider most important to pass on our concerns, as well as promoting the onset and consolidation of other iniciatives and people, both in the Social Center and the housing project.
In order to achieve this, we contemplate the possibility of creating a housing cooperative to focus energies on taking care of the house and cultivation lands, developing a lifestyle opposed to the prevailing dogma of individualism and private property.
🌿 As we had to put into words the goals of the project, we have followed the four dimensions that many projects concerned about social transformtion have previously followed:
🌿 From these dimensions, we understand as some of Mas del Potro's goals:
Our motivation is to live in a continuous contact with nature, creating a community of people who freely has chosen to live and organize themselves without any hierarchy, willing to put their energies and time on working the land with the less possible impact on the ecosystem. That means commiting on respecting the enviroment, flora, fauna and people inhabiting the land.
We leave the door open to whoever feels like learning about the project or take part in it; always keen to re-think it from the consensus of those involved.
The co-initiators are: Sare, Roger and David. We are three youngsters form El Comtat whit different kind of experiences in similar projects.
Sara studied Art History and Sociology in France, together with a master focusing in Arts and Society in Barcelona. After participating and arranging communiy projects in southern France, involving in cities' social fights and collaborating with collectives (mainly in Athens) she gets interested in decentralized socio-cultural and artistic action and the rural memory.
Roger with deep interest on agronomy, botany and food transformation. Moved by alimentary sovereignity, farmer's dignity and LTBIQ rights, takes part in social movements around the País Valencià and differents parts of the geography, nationaly and outside the territory.
David has been linked to live in the country-side since he was a kid. During his studies he got the chance to live in different cities, either in or outside the Spanish territory. Carrying political and social concerns wherever he's moved to, he has tried to shape them throughout the studies, experiences, and the encouragment that contact with others bring.
As collective experience, all three of us are members of APOC (Acció Política del Comtat), young but ambicious project created in order to unite our energies towards the self-sufficience of our villages and creation of cultural and leisure spaces where we could feel safe. Right now, the project that's still running is the garden ACABassaes, in the town of Alcosser.
We are between 22 and 23 years old. As young people we are aware of the difficulties of our generation -precarious- in order to obtain economical resources and undertake initiatives. That is why we need help, networks, collaboration... We know we can do it, and if we get to do it, it has to be the right way!
We see ouselves with the strength, the hope, the motivation, and the capacity to carry out this project. Right now we are in three, but the door won't remain closed; one of our objectives is to create a community of commited people, an experimental space of shared lifes inside the Barranc del Cint.
We will grow according to our rythms, timings, meetings and coincidences...
The Mas del Potro stays and it will be in a collective way! 🌿
Our social commitment will be focused on agrorural development. Not understanding development in terms of growth, extractivism and exploitation; understood as a way of dignifying rural enviroment inhabitant's life thanks to sovereignity (food, energy and culture). Said this, we comprehend this social commitment as a way to facilitate and share a social and ecological transition.
Gender equality is not only a fundamental human right, but a necessary foundation for a peaceful, prosperous and sustainable world.
