WE HAVE FINALLY FINISHED IT! After 3 years of digging holes in the dead of night surrounded by magical mountain beasts, we set out on a mission to create the most thoughtful compost toilet design the world had ever seen, a design that lives in harmony with nature, saves us 75,000 litres of water each year, and creates valuable compost for our trees. It’s taken us 8 solid months, and in this time we’ve pushed ourselves to the limit of sanity (genuinely a little over the limit for Robbie), we’ve had some heated debates, some great challenges, and some magical moments too.

We’ve spent two years alone, renovating an old stone house and restoring the abandoned land. Join us as we continue to build our off-grid homestead, and become self-sufficient from the land.
