Alcove
Stewardship

Creating personal space at the Alcove while giving back to the land.  The property is in private ownership with various levels of Stewardship. 
 

Each Stewardship involves the right to use a Leased Site and the responsibility of managing that home site, outside living areas and assist with the upkeep of common areas & facilities as needed. Home site areas are carefully incorporated into the areas used by the community.  

 

An emphasis has been placed on green living and wildlife preservation.

We build our smaller footprint homes and common buildings using alternative techniques such as cord wood, earth bag, papercrete, ferrous-cement, rock, recycled/salvaged materials, even a shed to home.

All homes are powered with renewable energy from sun & wind (and other renewable and sustainable energies), also conserving energy & water and using gray water, biodegradable materials, local production of foods from solar greenhouses with composting, locally managed sewage recycling schemes and local production of goods for financial gain.
