Sam and Mass combine their work practices within their commitment in building and maintaining a sutainable lifestyle at home. We try to eat what we grow, including our own herbal tonics, teas and medicines. The guiding principles behind all our daily activities are based on mindfullness. We sit, sing, play, dance and sweat in rhytm with life and the 4 seasons. We honour semplicity and renewable resources, keeping our footprint managable and accountable.
