Subject: "Off-the-grid" Eco-Stay ideas

posted by Brendan on Tuesday, July 15th 2008 @ 3:33 PM

Hi all,

I am in the process of setting up my "off the grid" home in Marlborough as an eco-stay. This house is completly powered by Solar PV and a micro hydro turbine. Also solar hot water, and the first domestic installation in New Zealand of the Biolytix worm farm for sewage. I desire to give people an experience of living off the grid and provide some basic education on what they can do in their existing / future homes.

What I am looking for is any ideas on websites / magazines in New Zealand that could be a good fit for advertising in.

Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks

Brendan.

Hi Brendan

This may be an obvious one -- Organic NZ -- they have a great readership and it's one of the magazines to be in.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the idea of the Organic magazine.


I have found a couple of global "green/eco" accomodation sites so will start there... I saw the recent "Good" magazine that has been released in NZ, funny thing is they have their digital version online for the same price...hmmm..   

Just my interesting point of view but I would have expected the much more friendly to the environment digital version would be cheaper!

It can be found at www.good.net.nz

Cheers

Brendan
