Middle Earth Healing and Learning Center L.L.C.
Middle Earth is a retreat and learning center dedicated to the practice of Deep Ecology-the spiritual experience of looking at life in terms of connecting relationships, networks, and patterns within patterns. We are grounded in the belief that the health and well being of each individual is interconnected with their living and working environment as well as to the health and sustainability of the planet itself.
The philosophy of the Center is to have respect for all life, to feel the Divine Presence in all living things, and to honor that Presence by the way we go about our daily lives.

The Geothermal Heating and Air Conditioning System Gets Installed:
The New and Interesting continues when Craig and Lisa decide to install a Geothermal system in their home to, once again, lessen their energy consumption. They brought in Clay Doyle and the folks of Geothermal Solutions from Theodore, Alabama to install this new system and the results are very exciting! They have been using the Air Conditioning System for 30 days and have used 70 kilowatts compared to the estimated 1000 kilowatts that would have been used by their Central Air System~! Pretty cool stuff!
