Open and Free

We debated whether we should charge a small fee or provide access for free. It wasn't a hard decision to make in the end.

We have promised free access to the entire community for the first six months.

With most families relying on subsistence farming, this is not really a cash-based economy. The reaction on people's faces when we mentioned that there would be no fees confirmed for us that we have made the right decision.

After six months, we will take stock, consult with the community and make further decisions.
