Jack and Marilou Dody live on a homestead on the plains
of Colorado, within sight of Pikes Peak. Jack has been
designing and building "alternative" housing since the
late sixties. His workbook entitled The Noah Project
gives the details of his homestead construction,
including solar and wind power, a rainwater catch system,
indoor garden, passive solar, and a composting toilet.

Marilou is the "quality control officer." Jack believes
that old saying, "If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!"
Marilou's input into all designs gives the woman's touch
which is so often missing on homesteads. Our goal is not
to "rough it," but to use new technologies to live well
while living off the the grid.
