Do you live off the grid? Do you have experience setting up your own off-grid systems? Do you need advice from someone who does?
Come check out the Off-Grid Roundtable! It is held the first Saturday of every month in the upstairs gallery at the St Johnsbury Athenaeum at 1pm. Current off-gridders, people who are thinking about off-grid living or homesteading, or people who are just interested in learning more are welcome.
On April 5 the focus topic will be on off-grid water systems. If you have related books or other materials to share or swap, please feel free to bring them!
This event is free, ADA accessible, and open to the public.
