What we've done - Switched to all LED lights (the light is pretty nice quality)
- Use a clothes line to dry linens (things end up a little wrinkly sometimes)
Things we are planning - Solar hot water pre-heating (warm the water before it goes to the HW tank)
- Solar heating (solar warmed air to supplement the heating system)
- Grey water for irrigation (from the sink, shower and washing machine)
- Replace the gas cookstove with something more efficient
| What you can do- All those things your mom told you (turn off the lights, close the door, don't waste water)
- Recycle (we have mixed stream, just but it all in the container)
- Drink our water & refill your water bottle (save your bottled water for later in your trip)
- Walk to Safeway for groceries (you can see it from the Barn)
- Eat local (Moscow Food Co-op and Farmers Market have great local food)
