Hello. I'm Richard Ager. Welcome to NH Outlook. On this week's program, we will be examining what it takes to create a truly sustainable community - to leave as light a footprint as we can on the earth that sustains us. So we have come to the Nubanusit Neighborhood & Farm in Peterboro, New Hampshire's first cohousing development.

TRUE? HOW DID THAT INFORM YOUR CHOICES AT NUBANUSIT? 3: YOU WANT TO GROW OR PRODUCE AT LEAST HALF OF THE FOOD YOU CONSUME. HOW FAR CAN THAT GO? HOW DO YOU DIVIDE UP THE CHICKENS, THE EGGS, THE VEGETABLES, ETC. HOW CLOSE TO A FOOD COMMUNE ARE YOU? HOW FAR CAN THE FOOD PRODUCTION GO? WILL YOU GET A SMOKE HOUSE? HOW IS THE HONEY PRODUCTION? 4: SO IS IT REALLY OKAY WHEN PIG BECOMES A BLT -OR HAVE YOU TESTED THAT YET? 5: HOW IMPORTANT IS REINTRODUCING FARM LIFE AS A PART OF A COMMUNITY NORM?

WHAT STRIKES YOU ABOUT NUBANUSIT THAT WORKS? 10: WHAT MEASURES INCREASE SOCIABILITY - AND BREAK DOWN BARRIERS? 11: YOUR HOMES ARE - TO BE BLUNT - PRICEY. MUCH OF THAT HAS TO DO WITH BEING ON THE CUTTING EDGE - BUT HOW CAN THIS BE AFFORDABLE TO - A FARMER? DICK - WHAT DOES ALL OF THIS HAVE TO DO WITH REGULAR FOLKS WHO DON'T HAVE THE MONEY? 12: YOUR IMPRESSION OF THIS PLACE FOR KIDS? 13; IS THIS A NON-PROFIT? |
