http://www.earthships.com/ mehh, you probably seen this already...=// but hey. i believe they got one in colorado. earthships are the next best thing to traveling around, if i ever decide to settle down, i'll try an build one of those things maybe a few around WOW and travel from earthship to earthship okay...i'm dreaming awayyy here lol
I have an interest in a commune that follows some alternative builing technique, whether it be earthships, yurts, or building with cob.
anyone interested in buidling some in South/southwestern Colorado? There is already a like minded community of ""hippies"', with also the ability to begin an organic farming collective. I am trying to get money saved up to move there to live in an intentional community for a while to learn more (www.ic.org). I have experience building an earthship home as I was integral in the construction of one from start to completion for my father in southern Missouri (Ozarks near Arkansas) from age 19-20. Labor intensive but somewhat simple to design and implement. Certainly more sustainable than wood construction. I also attended a workshop in Taos put on by Earthship founder Michael Reynolds back in 2003. Here is an article I found quickly: http://www.ibiblio.org/ecolandtech/permaculture/mailarchives/permaculture-info/msg00111.html Id love to correspond with like minded people. Much love from the heartland, -=Evan=-
