August is a busy harvest month at Earthaven. Abundance (and labor) abounds.

Extra summer cabbage turns into lots of saurkraut.

Elderberries are made into syrup.

Beautiful field of buckwheat cover crop at Horn of Plenty.

Salad with wild flowers – elder flower, day lilly, and red clover – all edible.

I was so happy to be part of a tour led by River Otter earlier this week. I was/am awestruck by the wonderful accomplishments of this community and the ongoing commitment and drive to live according to their values. I saw firsthand the impressive hydro-electric energy system alongside the growing number of solar arrays that this community uses to harness and re-direct the energy that nature makes available for their careful storage and conscientious use. I am humbled by this prodigious effort and hopeful for what humanity can accomplish when we believe that our lives and our global fate depend upon this kind of massive re-tooling of our lifestyles.

The introductory overview tour examines the concept of sustainability at Earthaven through social, ecological, and economic lenses. Not only will you get a glimpse of what has worked through time, but also hear about what has been challenging. And you will have a chance to ask questions!
