Hello Humanity Pod fans!
It’s been a busy and hot summer of pod building! Many a day, it was extremely hot in my garage, so work had to wait until it got cooler, but we’ve now got 4 pods ready to hit the streets! One issue still is where folks can park them without either being harassed or kicked off properties. Until a new Mayor is installed, nothing will likely happen with the City of Northampton to provide common space. If you happen to own a home or business where there is land for a pod, and you think you might be amenable to sponsoring a podster to use your property, please contact me soon at humanitypods@gmail.com!
The VIllage Hill Co-housing team and the Bertone-Johnson Family have both finished up their team building for Humanity Pods! Every pod is a little different, as you can see, and sometimes, folks create aspects that are truly unique. See our photos below!

There is still time to build a pod before the cold weather sets in. If you would like to form a team and build one, please register on the Team page. And don’t forget to tell all of your friends and family about this great project! We can use all the support we can get!
In Hope for a better World!
