THE ECOHOOD BASE
Welcome to the Eco Hood
EcoHood, n: permaculture retrofit of a mid- to low-income neighborhood with a high potential for ecological sustainability.
Transforming urban neighborhoods into ecological, sustainable landscapes by offering interactive edu-tainment in the form of video and audio mod/pod blogcasting. EcoHood is a website created to educate people about the current state of the human/environmental relationship as we see it, and offer real solutions based on eco design, green building and permaculture principles such as recycling water, growing food, and raising animals. EcoHood also acts as a forum for the perspectives of indigenous leaders and eco-revolutionaries of our time.
The greater goal of this work is to catalyze a mass movement towards a regenerative and sustainable civilization that reflects our potential for symbiosis with the life-support systems of the earth.
Renewal of the Earth in the new ecological community.

Hello all,
I have relocated to Corvallis, Oregon from the Ecohood in Prescott,
Arizona. I have chosen to move my family up here to be in an
agriculturally rich region so I can pursue some dreams that need to
happen in this type of environment. Thank you all for the support
you've given the Ecohood project for these years. The Ecohood lives
on, as strong as ever with a beautiful group of people who are
carrying the torch and continuing the project.
My house and permaculture demonstration site in the heart of the
Ecohood is for sale.

Andrew Millison off shows some permaculture systems like rainwater catchment, greywater irrigation, and food gardens. There's nothing to it but to do it, permaculture provides for our needs of food, water, and energy where we live.

As we face a future in which clean water will become less and less
accessible, we must re-evaluate our wastewater treatment systems and develop them into more earth-based processes that utilize human knowledge of the natural world. Watch as students from the Ecosa Institute's summer Permaculture/Water Design Intensive construct an ecological wastewater treatment system, or Ecomachine, in Prescott's Ecohood under the direction and guidance of the system's creator, Dr. John Todd, and workshop coordinator Andrew Millison.
