Tibbleburrow: A Vision of Eco-Living and Fantasy
Welcome to Tibbleburrow, a place where fantasy meets reality, where eco-living harmonizes with the dreams of the Shire. Join us on a journey as we explore the vision, mission, and magic behind Tibbleburrow, a unique destination in Southeast Wisconsin that promises to redefine the way we live, interact with nature, and build sustainable communities.
**The Vision Unveiled** -
*The Birth of Tibbleburrow*
In the heart of Wisconsin, a dream was born. It began with Rebecca Alm, a small business owner with a passion for creating, building, and capturing memories. As her children grew, she envisioned a place that embodied the values she cherished—community, nature, and the inspiring magic of Tolkien's Middle-earth.
*Our Shire Comes to Life*
Rebecca's dream was to bring the Shire, that idyllic haven from J.R.R. Tolkien's literary works, to life. A place where visitors could immerse themselves in the world of Hobbits, celebrate nature, and find respite from the chaos of the modern world.
**Crafting the Fantasy**
*The Unique Architectural Challenge*
Tibbleburrow's core concept revolves around building eco-friendly, underground dwellings inspired by Hobbit holes. These homes will blend seamlessly into the landscape, showcasing sustainability, and offering a one-of-a-kind living experience.
*Living in Harmony with Nature*
At the heart of Tibbleburrow is the commitment to eco-living. Solar power and wind energy will provide clean, sustainable energy. Greywater recycling will nourish communal gardens and orchards, showcasing how modern comforts can coexist with the environment.
**An Unexpected Party - The Community**
*Building a Unique Community*
Tibbleburrow is not just about buildings; it's about people. Each home will reflect the personality and skills of its dwellers—the Baker, the Gardener, the Textile Worker. The community will thrive, like an "unexpected party," celebrating life, creativity, and shared values.
*Preserving the Land*
The town will remain in harmony with nature. Grass fields, gardens, and moss-covered forest paths will beckon residents and visitors to explore. Tibbleburrow will serve as a steward for the land, fostering conservation and ecological awareness.
**Immersing in the Experience**
*The Magic of the Experience*
As visitors step into Tibbleburrow, they will leave behind the modern world. The town will open up before them, with Old Calla Place serving as the check-in point. Each home, handcrafted with love, will provide modern comforts within rustic decor.
*Celebrations under Enchanting Lights*
As the sun sets, Tibbleburrow transforms into a realm of enchantment. The Party Tree becomes the center of celebration, with colorful lights illuminating the area. Guests can savor a home-cooked meal at the Merry Mushroom or head to the pub for a specialty drink.
**An Eco-Friendly Playground**
*Activities for All Seasons*
Tibbleburrow offers activities year-round. Fish in the pond, swim during the summer, and ice skate in the winter. The pond is just one example of eco-friendly features that keep the community connected to the land that sustains it.
*Learning and Exploration*
Visitors can take leisurely strolls, explore the community's goals and history, visit the friendly animals, and enjoy pony cart rides through the grassy fields. Tibbleburrow is a place where learning and exploration go hand in hand with relaxation.
**A Dream with Purpose**
*Fostering Community Support*
Tibbleburrow is more than a dream; it's a project with a purpose. It aims to support artisan communities and help rebuild small businesses affected by the pandemic shutdowns. By giving back to the community, it ensures that everyone benefits.
