Thirty years ago and about eighteen miles from Aspen, Colorado, Jerome Osentowski built a “hoop house,” a tunnel made of polyethylene that heats up due to solar radiation. He had in mind a greenhouse and kept adding to it with recycled steel and other materials. Over the years, his original hoop house design expanded into five greenhouses that now produce food via climates ranging from Zones 6 through 12.

Also known as sun-eating, the practice of staring into the sun at sunrise and sunset is an age-old technique for stimulating the pineal gland, fostering health and reaching beyond current states of limited thinking and the way one experiences life.
