Living energy farm : ウィキペディア英語版 | Living energy farm Living Energy Farm, or "LEF," is a zero fossil fuel intentional community of four members on 127 acres in rural Louisa County, Virginia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=The Central Virginian )〕 The farm is a Community in Dialogue with the Federation of Egalitarian Communities. Like nearby Twin Oaks Community and Acorn Community, LEF is egalitarian and income-sharing.〔 == Purpose ==
LEF is a "neo-Amish"〔 farm and educational center. The farm grows crops and maintains orchards utilizing the methods of organic horticulture. Because of its fossil fuel avoidance, LEF relies on draft animals and tractors with wood gas engines that run directly off woodchips or other cellulosic debris.〔 The building and homes on the property are “green,”〔 insulated and built with low-tech, local materials such as straw bales, rocks, and clay. Photovoltaic electricity, composting toilets, and greywater systems are integral to the community. In the winter, living spaces will be warmed with solar heating, and a natural cross ventilation will cool the buildings in the summer months.〔 The community aims to sustain itself financially by growing seeds for organic seed companies, selling organic fruits and vegetables〔 and offering classes to the public.〔
