Two owners posing during their Growing Dome Greenhouse build in Sweden

DATELINE Sweden, the U.S. connection, the story continues… As with many “Great Times” in life, our time in Sweden came and went in a blink. The Johansson family, our wonderful hosts, represent, in my opinion, the future of our planet. I know that sounds profound, but it is the simple truth. The love, interest and time spent together as a family expands to their community and foreign guests as well. What a natural, unconditional way to be! Careful Ludvig, don’t let that go to your head. Well, building a Growing Dome Greenhouse in Sweden is easier said than done. Just imagine the state of Washington USA, with more rain…is that possible? Anyway, we did what we could do, laughed a lot and took pride in what we did. Now that the dome is buttoned up, it’s hard to tell what pictures we will see next from Ludvig. I can hardly wait!!

Former Growing Dome Advisor

I graduated from Pagosa Springs High School in 2009 and moved to Gunnison, Colorado to pursue a degree in Environmental Studies. After graduating from Western State Colorado University, I moved back to my home town Pagosa Springs. Since moving back home in 2013, I have been working to develop a farm in Arboles. In my spare time, one may find me backpacking in the wilderness, cruising on a mountain bike, slacklining in the park, or skiing Wolf Creek. I also enjoy creating art when I am not outdoors. The mediums that I enjoy working with are yarn, canvas and paint, and clay. I have been experimenting with aquapoinics and am always excited to share knowledge on the subject with others. I joined the Growing Spaces team in 2015, and enjoy being involved in all the exciting projects and developments happening around here!
