Books That Fund the Mission

Every book we share here supports Unplugged Spirit’s open-source work. Whether it’s food wisdom, regenerative design, or stories that nourish the soul—these titles help fund our modeling efforts and spread the vision.

Open-Source Toolkits

Our Toolkits are practical, open‑source guides designed to help communities build resilience and abundance. Each toolkit offers step‑by‑step frameworks, checklists, and interactive dashboards covering energy, water, food, waste, and governance systems. Whether you’re prototyping a small homestead or scaling to thousands of acres, these resources provide adaptable strategies—from solar‑wind hybrids and rainwater harvesting to plastic‑to‑fuel conversion and Ubuntu‑style contributionism. Explore, adapt, and contribute to a growing library of solutions that empower people everywhere to thrive off‑grid.

Guides & Case Studies

Dive into practical guides and real‑world case studies that bring regenerative systems to life. These resources provide step‑by‑step frameworks for energy, water, food, waste, and governance, alongside stories from prototypes in Hawai‘i, Jalisco, and California. Learn how communities are applying solar‑wind hybrids, rainwater harvesting, aquaponics, plastic‑to‑fuel conversion, and Ubuntu contributionism to thrive off‑grid. Each guide is designed to be modular and adaptable, while case studies highlight lessons learned, outcomes achieved, and pathways for replication.

Frameworks

Explore foundational models for building resilient, regenerative communities. These frameworks support governance, energy autonomy, water resilience, waste conversion, and dashboard logic. Use them to co-design systems, simulate scenarios, and empower collaboration.

Prototypes & Experiments

This fills a unique gap—field-tested builds, fabrication trials, and resilience stress tests. It complements Case Studies but focuses more on iterative design and technical experimentation.

Printable Field Guides

This gives your outreach and onboarding efforts a home—especially for low-tech environments, workshops, and community training.
