ONE HEALTHY HOMESTEAD
This cozy suburban homestead was designed to be an integrated agricultural system which provides enough produce and medicine for all residents year-round. Multiple yields including produce, fruit, chickens and mushrooms are incorporated into different layers of this ecosystem.
Having committed movement practices, these residents desired health-supportive elements that allow them to train and recover optimally. To meet these needs we incorporated a wood-fired EMF shielded sauna, cold therapy tub, slackline and designated open spaces for sunbathing.
Some of the design features included were:
​
-
Agroforestry beds that supply fresh food and medicine year round
-
Perennial vegetables to reduce maintenance and increase yields
-
Low maintenance chicken systems
-
hot/cold therapy systems for personal health management
-
Mushroom cultivation patches
