A Close Up Look at Scaling Down

Across the country, cabin fever is catching on. If you’re following the tiny home trend, or the minimalist movement, you know that more and more people are saying “yes to less.”

But, before you sell the farm, so to speak, it’s important to take a closer look at scaling back. Is a 400 square-foot cabin on wheels a little bit of heaven or might it be a bigger challenge than you bargained for? We believe the “craze to contain” is rooted in good reason. We have a planet to protect and a way of life that depends on how well we manage the resources we’ve been given. And yet, the simple truth is, one size does not fit all.

If you’re one of the growing number of folks considering the pros and cons of living in a smaller space, the following articles may offer some insight. When you’re ready to take the plunge, we hope you’ll visit our plant for a closer look at some of our cabins.
