build solar water heating
If I was to build an eco-village?
Of around 50 homes. Completely off-grid, no new fangled solar panels. Just houses with basic wood fire/stove, water heated the same way. A communal wheat field and vegetable garden, a couple of cows and chickens. Everyone would do their bit, gardening, foraging for wood etc. If everything was provided for you so you never had to go to work?
Would you want to live there?
Lily, why do you assume I’m middle class?
gosh yes please. do you have planning permission? i hear lammas had another setback lately and are set to appeal for the third time. when will the planners get the message?
