What's surrounding The MEV? Get to know your future backyard and get a glimpse of what everyday life here will look like.

We set out on a day trip to explore what life around The MEV really feels like, and came back even more convinced we’re building in the right place. From a 50-minute drive to a beautiful beach, to hidden waterfalls, hiking trails, lakeside paddleboarding, and lunch in a charming mountain town, this episode is your glimpse into what everyday life could look like here. We also share updates on the newly cleared Phase 1 plots (MU6), with some of the most breathtaking views of the lake and mountains yet. If you’ve been imagining yourself here, this is the episode to tune into. 🫶🏼

"We didn't want to leave"

What started as a simple gathering turned into one of the most unforgettable moments at MEV. We shared brand new renders, explored newly cleared plots, and watched a sunset that reminded us exactly why we are building this village. For the next gathering, we’re planning for even more. More people, never-before-seen drawings, new areas of the land to explore, and a few exciting surprises that we can’t wait to share.
