About

The Broadwell Hill Learning Center and Resiliency Initiative is a 65-acre sustainable woodland stewardship project that also serves as a learning lab, retreat and community council space for reconnection and relocalization efforts.   We are active on the Transition US ning site http://www.transitionus.ning.com and the Transition Ohio site http://www.transitionohio.ning.com ; please visit us there.

This owner-built, well-insulated, passive solar cabin (still in creation) is custom-designed with respect for the land and the utilization of local materials and construction industry excesses. The off-grid photovoltaic system provides 100 % of the electricity needed and consists of a 2 kW array with an Outback MX60 charge controller, VFX3648 inverter, related equipment, and eight 546 Amp-hour Surrette batteries. The 74 kBtu/day solar thermal hot water system consists of 2 Gobi collectors, a Heliodyne exchanger, and a 119 gallon insulated water tank.

This site offers many learning opportunities, including in the realms of communication and teamwork, conservation and preparedness, soil amendment operations and vermiculture, water catchment processes, as well as a living machine sanitary sand filter, a mobile PV power system, and woodland gardening projects.  There are numerous experiments underway with some of the data available at www.broadwellhill.org

We are also hosting monthly conversation circles geared to promote a systems approach, democratic dialogue, and collective wisdom.
