Free & Real
Free & Real is a non-profit, non-government organisation established in 2007, located 200km North-West of Athens, in the municipality of Istiaia-Aidipsos, northern Euboea, Central Greece. Currently set as an experimental micro sustainable community, it was founded by Apostolos Sianos and others, who currently run it in collaboration with permanent and temporary community members. The community currently consists of 6 members. Free & Real has activities in three locations: the workshop and general living space in a property in the Agios Village, a sleeping area with three Yurts in a property 5km from the workshop, and The Telaithrion Project in 1.2ha of land in Mount Telaithrion at about 15km from the workshop.

It currently consists of some agricultural developments, and counts with a large dome where Free & Real runs workshops and seminars.
Self sufficiency
Free & Real aims at implementing as many self sufficient and sustainable practices as practicable. It produces some of their food and other resources like oil, but at this time it obtains most of it from third parties, mostly purchasing from friendly merchants at discounted prices or as donations. Free and Real's running costs are currently covered by the fees obtained through workshops and seminars they offer on a variety of topics like sawing and soap making.
