house that can provide adequate shelter off-grid. Also looking for a piece of land with a natural spring to build it on.

Going "survivalist" on us, UW? Well, if you are doing it in those North Carolina hills,
paddle faster if you hear banjos. :>)

"designing a "green" house that can provide adequate shelter off-grid."

Sounds like a good idea. Just don't forget that your lifeboat is tied to the good ship USA.

If she sinks, then we all go down.

We have a place very near what you describe except it's not a spring but a whole river. We have a well, but of course that wouldn't do us any good without electricity to run the pump. And we're not "green" other than having a HUGE supply of wood.
