"Simply put, a strong desire for guilt-free living was our motivation for this project. We want to build a home that will take care of us, just as Nature has taken care of the human race for thousands of years. We've often tossed around the idea of forsaking everything and just moving out into the wilderness, but it just wasn’t very realistic for us. We still need to live and work as part of society, but we really want to cast off some of our energy wasting ways and set an example of what can be done with a little know-how and bit of sweat.

"After a lot of research and soul-searching, we have decided to build an EcoArk. We have based the premise of this project on the concepts found in the Earthship volumes. Take a browse around the site, learn about what our EcoArk is, and why it makes sense for just about anyone. We hope that in sharing as many aspects of this journey as we can, we will help inspire others to take similar steps, and lessen the load on Mother Earth. In addition to photos of materials, construction and location, we've also included a variety of photos to remind us all of the beauty of the environment we are striving to protect."
