Hello permies!

First post and introduction. I've recently moved to Colorado Springs and am looking for community and homesteading living options.

I've worn many hats with off-grid living, traveling and living like a pioneer. Earthship and natural building materials are a focus for sustainability for me and I'd love to meet others in their journey with it. Other homesteaders looking for an extra hand is also an interest to keep my skills sharp and ever-growing.

Please feel free to contact me anytime if you are a local to the area or looking to move here in the near future.

Emily

Hi Emily and Welcome to Permies!

I've added your thread to the Rockies Forum, which hopefully will alert your neighbours.

Check out the building category for some of the natural building projects that other Permies are sharing, we'd love to see your projects too if you would like to share them with us!

To get started you might like to go to this thread which gives links to lots of useful thread on How to do things on Permies, like post pictures and search for topics.

Great to have you here!

Hi Emily,

We started out last September on 35 acres in North Central Fremont County (between Cripple Creek and Salida). There are some great resources in the Springs - shoot me a message and I can connect you!
