http://sites.google.com/site/earthshipmanitoba/project-definition We plan to build our off the grid home in the 2012 and 2013 building seasons. Our home of choice a Global Model Earthship, a sustainable home that provides everything we will need to collect our own water, grow our own food, heat our home, and generate our own energy; this non-conventional housing solution is new to Manitoba but not new to the world.
