Hey everyone my name is Cody and I love to grow delicious food. I plan on living off the grid in an earthship and plan to intern for the earthship academy in the spring. I love sustainability and that is why im here. Im excited for my build and learning along the way from such a great community. I ask alot of questions so I expect many in return. Being in this community feels right and its only been 5 minutes. I look forward to chatting with you and would like to meet more locals with aquaponic systems. Lets over grow the system! |

Good question. An earthship is a completely sustainable building that was invented by Micheal Reynolds and they are based out of Toas, New Mexico. The harvest rain and snow for water, use aquaponics to grow food, have a greenhouse built into the house, treat waste water, recycle grey water, are made out of dirt straw old tires and glass bottles, and produce their own electricity via solar, among many other awesome things. Look them up pretty amazing! |

That's the spirit I was looking for when I registered on this forum. I hope you have some sketches of such projects. I would love to see that. Read you around. |
