Our guest Owen William Fritts has been modeling a new-paradigm life for more than a decade in Santa Fe New Mexico. A skilled architect and sculptor, Owen focuses his attention on a permaculture farming community where people can volunteer their time in an energy exchange of food, shelter, community and an acquisition of new skills. Like Eric, Owen is also a long time participant of Burning Man and shares many stories about how this culturally significant experiment has greatly impacted his life.

We are building an off-grid shipping container artist compound, with a studio and hoop house garden start-up.
