Welcome to the Hope Ecovillage Blog

We are pursuing the development of an Ecovillage in the Rochester, Minnesota area. An Ecovillage is an urban or rural community that strives to integrate a supportive social environment with a low-impact way of life. Our vision is a village of 10-20 homes clustered to enable sharing of utilities and resources on 5-10 acres. This will be an off-the-grid development that we hope will demonstrate an alternative to a conventional low sustainability housing development. If this concept interests you, please get in touch with us and keep checking back for updates on our progress. You can comment below or email me at hope.ecovillage@gmail.com

Living Green Expo

Mary and I are heading up to the Living Green Expo on Saturday. I attended last year and if you haven't been there yet, I would highly recommend it. It's located at the State Fairgrounds, I'll attach a link below. There's probably a couple hundred exhibiters and over 50 presentations and workshops.

We plan to get there in time for Tim Eian's presentation at noon on "Passive Houses" and then at 2:00 is a presentation on "The cutting edge of Sustainable houses". It will probably take the rest of the afternoon to browse the exhibits.

Hope you can make it up there too!
