As some of you might remember, we traversed through T or C last year and taped a bunch with Mikey and Wendy of Green Acre Hotsprings. On our way over to Virginia, we have stopped by again to catch up and meet some new folks hacking out here in the desert. The photo above is us taping an interview with Asher, who sells biodiesel and WVO (waste vegetable oil) for fuel in Mimbres, NM. He also has an off the grid household with solar power, a humanuare outhouse, a greywater system and a newly planted food garden.
We also got Mikey hooked on No Knead Bread and he’s successfully cooked two batches in his kick ass solar oven. I was incredibly skeptical of the solar oven at first, but when i saw it jump from 0-300 degrees in about 10 minutes, I was sold.
We are excited to post all our videos from our cross country trip as soon as we get settled in our new home. Stay tuned!

Is there supposed to be a video link here?
It’s great to see the two of you as you traverse across the country. All the best from the midwest!
Looking forward to seeing the video from T&C!
I am very interested in information about renewable energy resources. I live in Engle (recently transplanted from the town of T or C proper) and would like to develop my living area to be as green as possible. I am also available to participate in any type of volunteer work in the area of renewable energy development.
My are of expertise is in construction costs (conventional type building) which I have been doing for many years. It would be great if I could develop and apply my field of expertise to renewable energy building concepts for the good of the community (community of living things that is). I look forward to hearing from you.
