The center is a 24 acre farm in a beautiful rural area at the foothills of the Andes and 9 miles from the center of the town of El Bolson. Many sustainable systems at various stages of development exist at the center including natural windbreaks, natural buildings, alternative energy generation, passive solar systems, composting toilets, recycling, garden, and nature reserve spaces. The presence of all these systems creates a dynamic environment for participants since they actually live in and experience them.</p>evalarevolutionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08231401285576634944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33924373.post-58289845701842737652009-12-27T16:15:00.001-08:002009-12-28T17:24:36.616-08:00Fuddy Now<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SzlZfV7oX6I/AAAAAAAAD5c/7bs611rAWvI/s1600-h/Spirit+Pine-26.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

This building is made with reclaimed pallets and was inspired by the Pallet Barn we made with Dafyd and Yolanda last spring. (See previous post.) The pallets are later stuffed and plastered with straw clay.<br /><br />Three people have come to learn and build this September with me. Their names are Adelaide, Luca and Fezzo. I am appreciative of their enthusiasm and motivation.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Everyone at Spirit Pine has been very helpful to the design process,<br />each bringing wisdom and skill. As the building grows, so do I.<br /><br />Stay tuned.....<br /></div>evalarevolutionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08231401285576634944noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33924373.post-70146807170678905102009-09-21T17:22:00.000-07:002009-09-21T18:44:57.740-07:00Wedding at Spirit Pine<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SrgaVIF-ymI/AAAAAAAADec/Y6kcP1K-vZU/s1600-h/IMG_2108.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SrgaVIF-ymI/AAAAAAAADec/Y6kcP1K-vZU/s200/IMG_2108.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384082304773573218" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SrgaUoxftgI/AAAAAAAADeU/YigNdaUKPtc/s1600-h/IMG_2123.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SrgaUoxftgI/AAAAAAAADeU/YigNdaUKPtc/s200/IMG_2123.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384082296366151170" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SrgaT-Y1KnI/AAAAAAAADeM/1G0UrhmP3WI/s1600-h/IMG_2121.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_tbL9S8uBGws/SrgaT-Y1KnI/AAAAAAAADeM/1G0UrhmP3WI/s200/IMG_2121.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5384082284988410482" border="0" /></a>Above you can Jenn and I standing in front of a pair of Orchard Toilets.
