Maine's "Little Village": A Glimpse into Off-Grid Tiny Home Community Life
In a serene corner of Maine, a unique "Little Village" is redefining modern living through its off-grid tiny home community. A recent video tour provided an intimate look into this sustainable lifestyle, showcasing the diverse structures and shared resources that make up this self-sufficient enclave.The community features several distinct tiny homes, each with its own character. Among them is "The Bachelorette," a compact yet spacious 14x10 foot blue house. Residents also share communal spaces, such as the "Hovel," a 10x12 foot yellow structure that serves as a kitchen and a gathering spot for movie nights. Another cabin, a 16x10 foot green dwelling, belongs to a resident named Alex.Central to the community's off-grid operation is a shared water well, described by residents as providing "the tastiest water." For those transitioning to this lifestyle, a 15x8 foot camper serves as temporary housing, allowing individuals to experience off-grid living while they build their permanent tiny homes. The village also includes practical structures like a hay barn and an oxen barn, both measuring 14x10 feet.This "Little Village" offers a compelling example of sustainable living, attracting interest from those seeking a simpler, more connected way of life away from conventional utilities.
