Call for links

[ragani]

Please send me your links relating to the following topics:

Co-housing
Permaculture
Sustainability
Homesteading
Green living
Intentional communities

Include books and other resources you felt were useful, information on community groups, even if they did not work, and any building techniques you think are worth checking out (or avoiding even).

I want to collect a bunch of links in one place to be easily found later.

Thanks for all of your help!

Per my promise yesterday, my friend's site-- loftyheights.org.

This is Oliver's attempt to create a web portal where green architects, contractors, investors, real estate agents, remodelers, etc etc etc, can all find each other. He also hopes that people will post any type of green content they wish there. The site is *very* new, so it has some growing to do.

I'll be checking out endofsuburbia.com next... thanks for the reference, and the henna! :)

Hi, perlandria pointed you out to me! This might not quite be what you're looking for, but are you familiar with worldchanging.org? Lots of good stuff there about sustainability from a technical/development aspect. I also have a friend here in Boston who's been doing formal academic research on feminist intentional communities -- would you like me to try to put you in touch with her?

I am now. Thanks!

I would not consider what I am working on a feminist community, although it is intentional. If you think she would still be interested, feel free to point her my way.

I am also putting together a tribe on tribe.net called homesteading village.

Hey, I recognize that one. :D

Also: Everdale (http://www.everdale.org/), a local (Ontario) organic farm and education centre... see their Sustainable Resources section. (After actually seeing a straw-bale building for the first time, my SO and I are completely sold. I'm presuming there are similar things on the West Coast.)

Two of my regular reads: Worldchanging (http://www.worldchanging.com) is excellent for sustainability news, and TreeHugger (http://www.treehugger.com/) has a similar bent from a more product-oriented perspective.

Cool. Thanks, two are not ones I had seen before. I was just told about Worldchanging, which I plan to subscribe to the rss feed.
