I hate to be the one to say it but Size is important. You can't have a 5 acre EcoVillage. Imagine a teenaged girl being invited to a party. She gets all done up and shows up ready to have a good time socializing only to find that it is just one or two guys who were pretending to be having a party just to see what would happen. 
 
We have the same thing here where people are parading around as EcoVillages who actually are not at all doing anything but exploiting the name. You must have real land or a plan to get some in my view of things. Sustainability is important. 30 people on 5 acres is not sustainable. I say it is more like One Person per every 3 acres as it is here in Eden where we have taken the trouble to think things through a little more deeply. - T
