Jack and Marilou Dody live on a homestead on the plains of Colorado, within sight of Pikes Peak. Jack has been designing and building "alternative" housing since the late sixties. His workbook entitled The Noah Project gives the details of his homestead construction, including solar and wind power, a rainwater catch system, indoor garden, passive solar, and a composting toilet.

Marilou is the "quality control officer." Jack believes that old saying, "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!" Marilou's input into all designs gives the woman's touch which is so often missing on homesteads. Our goal is not to "rough it," but to use new technologies to live well while living off the the grid.

Today, Jack and Marilou are associates with EQUIP Ministries, helping Christian missionaries to design housing for themselves and the people they serve.

Jack is available to help you create a more effective homestead, including solar electric. We depend on your financial help to make our services available. Call us for more information: 719.360.3075
