Sustainable Living in Community

Post image for Sustainable Living in Community

Pictured above is one of many community buildings at Twin Oaks Intentional Community. (I used to live there.) Mandy and Ryan took this photo, and I had to share their story. They just finished traveling to sustainable communities around the United States and are making a documentary about it. They call it bike-packing, because they did 6,000 miles traveling by bicycle (and their gear is solar powered). I can’t wait to see the film! Make a donation to their project.

We are big fans of Twin Oaks. We have purchased two of their hammock products and always buy their tofu from our local co-op. Neither their hammocks or tofu can be beat!! Thanks for spreading the Twin Oaks-love.

aha! fairly new to blogging, i have stumbled across yours since i started my own last year – i have lived in many a tiny greeny house in my time, the one you pictured in todays post included. Funny, the synapse delay as the realisation sunk in. I used to live there too. Thanks for putting tiny house out there. I have had a link on my blog to you for awhile now. growmama.blogspot.com
much love – anissa
