White Mountain Yurts

[Karl]

Hi all,

My wife Jenny and I built a 30 foot White Mountain Yurt in Glover, Vermont.
The experience was excellent. They gave great service, and the yurt seems rock solid. They delivered early and erected it in two and half days, the insulated platform took about 5 days to build. We lived through a storm with 60 mile gusts, not long after it was put up. We have a fully insulated platform, 24 volt off-grid power, and now a 142 ft deep well. We will be

heating

with wood and have a stove designed to heat 700-1000 sq ft, that also bakes and cooks. So far we love living in the yurt, and many people have come to see it. I will post some pictures eventually, and we are chronicling the experience in a blog at
littleyurtontheborderlands | Homesteading permaculture microfarming site There are pictures there of everything we have done from start to finish, so far. I still need to install sink and shower drains and get running water in pipes, instead of a hose. Eventually we plan to make our living as small farmers from this place.
