I analysed 71 academic articles about family homesteads written between 2003 and 2018. Many articles drew parallels with the Western concept of “eco-village”, and emphasised the residents’ desire for self-improvement, social harmony and an environmentally-friendly way of life (Petrov 2008, Kulyasov 2009, Savitsky et al. 2011, Pavlov 2013, Arkhinova 2015, Mukhlykin 2015, Hall 2015, Nesterova […]
I appeal to you, readers of my books! Your ardent souls and hearts will help to perceive what I am saying and what is unsaid in this appeal. Your feelings and minds have already grown the sprouts of a beautiful future for Russia and the world.
The main idea of the Ringing Cedars books is to perfect our environment. Anastasia says and does everything around this central concept. We should cease destruction of the Earth and begin a great planetary project for perfection — a new civilisation of flourishing nature in agreement with the dream of our creator and eventually even better. Life is about Truth… Joy… Love…

“Family homestead” is a better and more accurate translation of родовое поместье (rodovoe pomestye) into English. Let me present my arguments. First, поместье is not an entirely new word. It has a historical meaning, similar to “homestead” (USA) and “estate” (UK), regarding an allotted plot of land to be developed by the recipient as a […]
In the mid 1990s, a new concept emerged in Russia for the arrangement of human settlements in rural territories. The family homestead idea allocates a plot of at least one hectare to each family household for the purpose of creating a dimension of love. Each family strives to perfect the environment within the boundaries of […]
Sounds of the Soul of Russia. These poems were written by readers of Volume 1 Anastasia, after its publication in 1995. Readers submitted their poetry directly to the author, and to the Anastasia Foundation.
In ancient times in Russia, the veche (вече) was conducted twice a year, at the spring and autumn equinox, or when there was urgent business to address. The elders (старейшины) from each village gathered together along with their helpers, not more than about five people from each village. There was no chief at this kind […]
What would you advise to those who really want to live in the settlement of “Radosvet”, but do not have the necessary funds?
Of course for a successful move, money is necessary. But it will appear only when your dream turns into a clear and measurable goal. In our world there are many opportunities to create capital.
Experiments show that plants retain a connection with their carers constantly, even at great distance, and probably instantaneously.
Ringing Cedars readers!Anastasiev!Family Homestead creators! You are invited to celebrate our new holiday, the Whole Earth Holiday, on 23 July 2019 together with us at Szasz Walker Family Homestead in Batlow, NSW. This new international holiday was invented together by Vladimir and Anastasia, first celebrated in Russia, and is ultimately destined to be a whole-Earth […]
Родовое поместе means family homestead, but not exactly. In Russian there are two words for family. Семья is the family in a small sense, the immediate family, like a nuclear family. Род is the family in a large sense, like one’s ancestry, family line, and connection to the Creator. To better understand the word Род, […]
There is good news on Earth but for the story that really satisfies, Westerners may need to look overseas. Thanks to the many people who are creating their family homesteads, preserving their oases of Love, there will be Good on the Earth!

It has never been so easy to get land. Every Russian citizen can get a free plot up to one hectare in the Far East. Far Eastern Hectare: live and work on your land.
Vladimir Megre: Good afternoon, friends. Right now we’re driving along the road in Bavaria, Germany. We decided to explore a little place with a campground where you can hold meetings. Remember I was saying it would be good to gather for a day or two, on the weekend, to communicate with each other. As you […]
Vladimir Megre: I spent three days in the taiga, as a result I wrote nine books. The release of the books themselves, people’s reaction to them, and changes to the world situation, she … predicted with absolute precision, right up to the presidential decrees. Until now, scientists have been arguing about who Anastasia is, putting […]
“The task of the authorities is to help these people overcome bureaucratic obstacles.” – Bair Zhamsuev
How good it is, what happiness is it when, united by one dream, one mind, people have the opportunity to get together and create something beautiful together!
Some people think we should adopt a special law on family homesteads so that these issues can be settled. Others believe it’s enough simply to introduce the concept of the ‘Family Homestead’ into the current Land Code.
In my school years, Vladimir Megre’s books “Ringing Cedars of Russia” became a part of my life. And then I began to dream of a family homestead and a happy future! The dream presented by the taiga hermit Anastasia inspires me in my creativity and guides me through life.
The federal government recently introduced a Bill on the regulation of the creation and operation of Family Homesteads. The document is being finalised taking into account the wishes of regional administrations.
“The Ringing Cedars of Russia” is gaining in popularity in this region, where supporters create their so-called “homesteads” (or “estates”) in ecologically clean areas. But often these assets were built spontaneously, without formal agreement. For example, this eco-friendly enclave is built on agricultural land.
This paper notes that the development of rural areas is a necessary for sustainable social and economic development in Russia and analyses the social and economic efficiency of family homestead settlements as a new way to revive rural territories.
A family homestead is a one-hectare plot of land that includes a house and a garden, a comfortable place for raising a family and for retiring in old age. It is a person’s homeland on Earth, promoting feelings of love between parents and children.
Flowering plants and berries attract to the hedge the attention not only of birds, but also of neighbours, especially children, who can sniff flowers and blossoms as they run about, and treat themselves to the ripe fruits.
We create the microclimate ourselves. The most important thing is to see the meaning in all of this, to actually want to take steps to meet others, and to go ahead and begin. Only the one who walks will master the road!
I portray all my dreams in detail, and I feel them. I feel that they are already close. It remains only to open the door and they will break into my life.
We planted lots of fruit trees, berry bushes (always a few more of those to finishing off planting), loosened several flower beds for flowers, made several permanent vegetable beds (we even had the first crops), and began to plant a hedge.
The real world effects of Megre’s books are measurable, documented, and significant. Economic scientists recognise their potential. Tens of thousands of people have actively begun to shape their lives around the books, with positive results. Perhaps most remarkably of all, a federal law to allocate free land was passed in 2016, though Megre predicted it in 2001.
… The day will come when all fathers understand that it is they who must answer for the world in which their children live. The day will come when each will understand that before bringing a beloved child into the world, the world must be made happy. You, too, must think about the world in which your offspring will live….
Presentation at the “Action Forum” of the ONF, December 2017
Everyone searches for happiness. But they created it – for themselves and for us. Clean air and water for their children, fresh fruit, a garden and a forest. Their own piece of homeland, a dimension that heals and offers eternity. Forefathers are responsible for the world into which they bring children.
When a woman is pregnant, the baby has it very good in the tummy. Mama loves the baby, it’s warm and cozy there. And I really wanted that when our child was born, that it wasn’t less good than than in this space. So that everything around him was already dear and familiar, and caressed and loved him just as much. I really wanted to give the child a Space of Love!

On a Family Homestead, a person is responsible for their own well-being, health and prosperity of the family. Uniting with their like-minded neighbors, residents solve common problems of roads, work, leisure, education of children and so on.

Global figures show a serious problem: our growing population is faced with dwindling resources. But despite dire predictions, there is a solution that will ensure our prosperity. Family homesteads are urgently needed to lay the stable foundations of a positive future.
Why make so much hot air discussing the theoretical solutions to underemployment, climate change and the housing crisis when a possible solution is right here in front of us?
Let the land employ our people! Put carbon back into the soil! Grow plants to support ourselves, and sell their fruits to fund future development.
Belarus will support those wishing to build Family Homesteads, Deputy Prime Minister Mikhail Rusyi told journalists today, as reported by BelTA. Mikhail Rusyi noted that the idea of creating Family Homesteads is now gaining popularity in Belarus. Many want to return to villages where, for example, their parents used to live, or simply prefer […]

by Natalia Butova 19 May 2017 It seems simple – this is the place where I was born, and it has geographical coordinates, like any other place on our land. But no, unfortunately, my HOMELAND does not exist anymore. It remained only in my heart and in my memory. And from there sometimes slip memories, […]
Every day we thank God for living in our Family Homestead. In the previous article, “Ecovillages or Family Homesteads?”, we considered one of the dangerous deceptions actively proposed by the forces of anti-rationality in the recent past — to rename Family Homestead Settlements as “eco-settlements” to make the world community recognise the Family Homestead movement.

by Galina Samokhina I am often asked whether our daughter studies well in family education, how she achieves academic progress in this or that subject. These questions pushed me to write this article. Parental concerns about school grades are understandable. I want our child to be, if not an excellent student, then at least good. […]
