Justin,
I live in vt and bought my yurt from

white mountain yurts

. They are great people to work with.
As for composting toilets check out the humanure handbook ( assuming you have land and can compost) by Joseph Jenkins. Great system that I have been using for years.
It's essentially a bucket system. I divert from Humanure system slightly. I use a separate system for liquids as I use the nitrogen for plants. I do however water my compost pile with some of this liquid gold as well, just not all of it. It also reduces

moisture

in the bucket allowing for greater composting of solids.sometimes the system you end up using also depends on your comfort level.
Good luck in your new adventure

so weird to see this posted, I too live in MA, on the cape to be exact. Looking to see if anyone else is in one full time. and where they were able to build.

Thanks,

Jon

Wink Re: Yurt Living in Massachusetts?

Just wondering if you had gotten anymore info on the yurt in the MA area...I'm in western MA and was thinking the same thing. It's not something you see everyday, but we should!! I was thinking if I had one built, I'd also have a metal roof installed as well, as extra protection from these NE winters....
