        • What is an Earthship?

          An Earthship is a type of house built with natural and recycled materials, with energy conservation in mind. It is designed to produce energy, water and food for its own use.

        • An Earthship is a type of passive solar house that is made of both natural and upcycled materials. Several models exist, and can be built in any part of the world, in any climate and provide electricity, potable water, contained sewage treatment and sustainable food production. Choose your favorite model.

           

          View Earthships currently for sale or buy some land in the Earthship Community

          Building cost could be significantly reduced if you decide to host an Academy or a Field Study.

Independent Study: Jacqueline Topete 2020

Description of Project 
Earthship Inspired Restaurant and Shop located in San Ignacio, Nayarit, México. This little town is located 1 km away from the chic trendy town of Sayulita that receives tourists from all over the world.

Proposed Beneficiaries
The restaurant will be run by Jacqueline Topete and will give service to locals and people traveling on the road.

Time frame (target dates) 
August 15th to December 30th 2020. The construction will be done by volunteers. They have been asked to work for at least 5 weeks and there are normally 6 at a time.

Documenting this project 
Pictures are being taken as well as a daily record of work being made. I have been taking videos every two weeks of the advance of the construction.

The restaurant will be open to the public and the information about the construction will be made. At the end of the project I will be sending the pictures and the translated diary that I have been using.
