sustainability is a big concept with some simple (and some not so simple) solutions and at Pompanuck we attempt to achieve this in a variety of evolving ways. Our buildings are constructed using local and recycled materials whenever available. We employ a number of alternative means of producing and reducing our energy consumption, including solar power, using our forest's wood for heating, and using low-consumption lighting and appliances in our buildings. We are always striving to make Pompanuck more energy efficient and less impacting on the land and resources of our earth.

We have a number of Cordwood and Strawbale buildings at Pompanuck. These buildings are energy efficient and hand-made, mostly using waste materials and recycled windows, doors and plumbing fixtures.
