For anyone who has knowledge and a couple minutes... trying to get a clear sense of what options exist for septic and nontraditional wastewater systems in Vermont. Anyone with experience doing this, especially if you've used an outhouse, a system involving humanure, etc—— all input appreciated.
Yup I can answer this one too. We should talk. Im not opposed to sub dividing our 80 acres to someone who understands off grid and taking care of land. Jules

If there was no limitation what kind of system would you like to build?
I am going to assume that you would like to tackle 3 things
1) Grow food with the humanure that you collect from your "septic tank"
2) Do away with a septic tank and have a all in one composting system
3) Removing your grey water from the septic tank and drain field, instead watering growing plants.
Iterations are fine, we don't have to be perfect

Jules, here is an alternative I came up with. Of course it's totally illegal, but I'd love to see anyone try to keep me from using my own water I paid for however I see fit.
