We are an organization of volunteers dedicated to "providing the basic necessities of human life (food, shelter, water, energy and community) through the intelligent application of simple technologies" with the use of passive-solar Domes and Vertical axis Wind Turbines designed by our Board member, David Allard of Allard Engineering.  Our primary goal is to fill what we feel is a desperate need in communities worldwide for centers of organic food production - that is, a surplus of healing food and herbs that can be acccessed by everyone, specifically those that demonstrate the greatest need.  Allard Domes serve as disaster-proof structures for housing and can also serve as year-round passive-solar greenhouses.  With the use of these structures as food generators, we will not only be able to provide many tons of fresh organic food to those in need year-round, but will also be able to involve local communities in learning about energy-efficient architecture with an emphasis on how to grow healthy food, "thereby building a cornerstone for a worldwide network of abundance to give every human being the time and dignity to lead fulfilling lives and elevate the quality of life for all."  In line with our Mission, over six growing seasons, one hundred TRC  volunteers have grown and donated over 8,500 lbs of fresh, organic vegetables and herbs to the Emergency Food Shelf in Burlington, VT.  The Allard greenhouse dome we aim to complete construction of this season has the capacity to grow over 3,000 lbs of food/year, most notably during the winter.  Our long term goal and vision is to create TRC community centers worldwide which will produce high-quality food for donation directly to local populations in need.  We plan on further developing and bringing this technology to our partnerships abroad that include a women’s relief center in India, a government sponsored agriculture development program in St. Thomas, sustainable eco-villages in Chile and Hawaii, Native American Reservations across the Southwest as well as a Rastafari agricultural heritage site in Jamaica.  By empowering individuals to provide their own basic needs we are solving a core problem that leads to the degradation of human dignity.  We hope to share this template for abundance with the world, with a focus on disaster areas and those living without the basic necessities of life.
