Trying to make contact with people who have already built
rocket mass heaters to utilize in our extreme cold in ND to hopefully visit and learn from so we can put one in our home also.
Who are we? We are a young family of 6 and have a few grassfed
dairy cows that are one of the most important things in our system. Their excess they produce from grass alone feeds our pigs and
chickens and produces meat for our year. We fill in the rest of our grassfed dairy/meat/cheese diet with home grown veggies and try to extend our season on both ends with planting cold hardy greens so we live more seasonally rather than cramming our already busy summer with preserving tons of food for the other 9 months out of the year. A challenge, but fun to
boot, and it keeps our children busy with us. We have
bees, laying hens, meat birds, milking shorthorn, dexter
cattle are working on an orchard and fruit and a lovely garden on 15 acres. I've been doing this on my own for 9 years before I met my now husband and we have been working on it together ever since.
