Right now, not much but building quickly!
My troupe and I just bought camper trailers to live in on a farm and have been fixing them up. In mine, the stove and fridge both run on electricity and gas and we’re excited to set up a biogas digestion system, so I’ve been researching how to build that as well as convert the appliances to methane.
Excited to set up a biogas water heater for showering as well!
Currently, I am about to set up LoRa nodes and receivers. We already have two in my city and I’ll be adding two more stationary nodes and getting some folks set up on the system so that’s super fun!
Otherwise, we also have a communally owned household e-bike as well as a whole apothecary fit with multiple interesting tools for processing herbs and foraged food.
We of course also have our garden and have been planting lots of veg and herbs at the farm site we’re moving too!
We’ll be setting up solar panels eventually (a little out of our budget right now for our full energy needs), but biogas can tide us over a little while we adjust.
will be utilizing a composting toilet system as well as a hand-wash and hang dry laundry.
There’s also a greenhouse in shambles that we’ll repair and some goats, geese, & a pond on the farm :)
Doing permaculture style
Otherwise, we’re also low waste and getting lower by the moment so gradually replacing all home items with sturdy, no-plastic alternatives. Working on repairing lots of clothes sewing by hand, repairing our shoes, and working with saponin-rich plants for soap is an ongoing process
Yeah, it’s super exciting! I’m just now starting to write and publish a somewhat weekly journal on our efforts, so perhaps (if it’s welcome) I’ll share that somewhere around here.
I’m super new to the Fediverse and specifically Lemmy, so I’ll have to learn etiquette around promoting my own work first 😅
But I will be sharing what I learn for sure!
