Seeking Sustainability
Can we balance inputs and outputs for a wholistic farm & lifestyle?
- Raise organic vegetables, hay, and fruit to feed ourselves and others.
- Sell produce locally in the Monroe area and through the internet.
- Generate our own electricty with solar PV panels and battery backup.
- Gradually add more: rainwater toilets, solar hydronic heating, wind generator, etc.
- Bring animals into the farm mix for a cyclical "resource management plan".
- Encourage others to enjoy our farm and share their knowledge and energy with us.
- Promote local small businesses that share these values.
- Advocate for ecologically sound policies and improved resource sharing on earth.
