No permission, no budget, no grand plan. A table, a patch of ground, a few people, and three things you can mostly make yourself.
Say you are startingTwo things, and you already understand both.
You have the tools, or you make them. A surface to think on, something to build with, something to build from.
And you want to walk towards your best possible futures rather than wait to be handed one.
That is the whole entry requirement. Nobody makes you a Hub. You say what you are joining.
Infinity ToolsThe material side. Infinity Stonepaper, Infinity Wax, a Material Station. Two of the three you can make or start yourself.
PLAYtoGROWThe Journeys. Open, adaptable, written by the people who walk them, and yours can be one of those.
NatureA relationship with the living world, wherever your ground is. A window box counts. Ten hectares count.
You leave the Regeneration Hub better than you found it. Not leave no trace: regenerate.
That sentence rests on three ethics. They are older than us, they run through permaculture wherever it is practised, and a place becomes a Regeneration Hub when the people who run it commit to them in public, in their own words if ours do not fit.
One more thing, which is not an ethic but is true:
We run this place ourselves, on our own responsibility and under the law of our country, including insurance and the safety of the children who come.
Signed with the name of the place and a date, and renewed each year. A Hub that stops renewing quietly stops being one, and nobody has to police that.
There is no form here and no button. Nothing gets sent to us, because a Hub is not something we hand out.
Write the three ethics out, and the fourth line about running the place yourselves. In your own words if ours do not fit. Put the name of your place underneath, and the date. Then hang it where the people who come can read it.
Write it on Infinity Stonepaper if you have it. Next year you wipe the date and write the new one, in the same place, in front of the same people.
That is the signing. It happened where it matters, and we were not needed for it.
Download it, print it, and write the name of your place on it yourself.
It goes on a window, a door, a toolbox, a gate, wherever people arrive. Printed on Infinity Stonepaper it holds to glass with nothing but water, and it wipes and rewrites like everything else here.
Nobody sends you this. You make it, the same way you make the wax.
Somebody walking past a place carrying this sticker can expect three things. That the ground here is better cared for than it was. That they can join in, and the tools inside are usable by them. That what is worked out here gets passed on rather than kept.
Earth Care, People Care, Fair Share, on a door. That is all it promises, and it promises it from the place rather than from us.
The name is free for anyone who holds the commitment, and we check nobody. We keep one right: to ask a place to stop using the name if something happens under it that breaks the commitment badly.
That protects the open model rather than contradicting it. These are places with children in them, and the name is the only thing we will ever be able to do about it. We expect never to use it.
A Hub will be able to stand on its own website rather than inside a profile on ours. You describe your place, what you have, who comes, what you are growing. What comes back is a proposal for a page that fits your context, and the code that builds it. You put it on your domain, under your name.
We will host nothing of it. The network gets to be decentralised by construction rather than by promise.
You tell it about your context. It turns that into a page proposal, and hands you the code.
Alongside it goes the prompt, and the tutorial is a prompt too: the text you paste into whatever model you use, to get from proposal to a site that stands. Anyone who would rather build it themselves skips the application entirely and takes the prompt.
A network held on one server is one server away from ending. A network where every place holds its own is difficult to kill and impossible to own.
It also means no list of you lives with us, no account, no login, nothing to leak. What is yours stays where you put it.
Every Hub on its own domain can be found rather than registered. Nothing has to pass through us.
At the start of 2027 we will show how many Regeneration Hubs there are. Not a target and not a countdown: a moment when a thing that grew quietly becomes visible to itself.
Four things to take today, no permission needed.
No commitment, just a first hello.
We read every one of these and answer by hand.
Parts of this are still being built, which is exactly why starting now matters. When you tell us you have begun, we send you ways to put the tools to work, and we help you test a first small Hub with other people.
A Regeneration Hub is a living organism rather than a finished product, and some organs are further along than others. Beginning now is not settling for less, it is helping decide what the whole thing becomes.
The places that start before there is a network are the ones that shape what the network turns out to be.
[OPEN]The honest list, kept current. Written when the page is built, not before.
A pot of wax on a stove, four lengths of bamboo, a box in the corner and a patch of ground nobody was using. That is a Hub. Everything else is what happens between the people who gather around it.
