Working With and Learning From Nature
Episode 103: Lloyd Kahn is a builder of books and homes. Editor-in-chief of Shelter Publications, Lloyd is the author of many books about handbuilt shelter including Home Work, Tiny Homes, Builders of the Pacific Coast and the classic book Shelter that documented handbuilt housing around the world. Lloyd was the Shelter editor of the early Whole Earth Catalogs and has been writing about building and people who build for much of his life.
In this interview with Jill Cloutier, Lloyd talks about why he became interested in in the art and craft of shelter, the benefits of creating your own home, the resurgence of interest in handbuilt homes and his new book Tiny Homes On The Move:Wheels and Water.

Many people living in South America eat the tubers as a
fruit, together with honey and lemon juice,
to add it to the fruit salad. The majority of the
yacon syrup cannot be digested, which is why it only has approximately a third of the caloric value
of sugar, or about 133 calories per 100 grams. While many are
not able to start their day without it, there are also a lot of people who have aversion towards it.
