Sustainable Boot Camp
Our Sustainable Boot Camp program offers the opportunity to become fully immersed in a sustainable lifestyle for periods ranging from days, weeks or months at a time. With this program, participants can take time away from their normal or conventional lifestyle to experience living in a sustainable environment.We offer 3 programs of sustainable living immersion to match the participant’s background and desired experience. Those interested in participating must complete an online application and interview with one of our boot camp staff members to help determine the best match between the participant’s skills and our program requirements.It’s important to note that evaluation of a participant’s skills is not limited to book knowledge or practical experience with sustainable practices. Each program incorporates progressively more sustainable lifestyle challenges that may affect the participant’s ability to adjust. Some of these factors include: physical or manual labor, dietary adjustments, access to modern electronics and conveniences, group participation and cooperation, as well as emotional maturity and stability. Our Sustainable Boot Camp immersion programs include: On-grid Sustainable Living, Off-grid Sustainable Living and Off-grid Self-Sustainable Living. Our Sustainable Boot Camp Immersion Experiences requires on-site participation at our non-profit headquarters located in Heber City, Utah. Participation in this program is FREE of charge and requires a personal commitment by the attendee for a predefined period of days or weeks to live and work at the Sustainable Living Academy premises.

Sustainable Literature Program
Our Sustainable Literature Program provides multimedia material in the form of pamphlets, manuals, books, video and documentaries on the general and specific sustainable applications. Literature is and has been one of the most fundamental tools for learning throughout history. Helping through literature cannot be understated or overlooked. In fact, it was the very development of writing that enabled humans to share their spoken language, bridge cultural differences, develop social laws and enable complex problem solving.Sustainable Living Academy understands this necessity and has risen to the cause by creating a program that offers free sustainable literature to whoever wants it. We see this literature program as an essential part of the Sustainable Training Center and is dedicated to sourcing, writing and publishing whatever is needed to transform the growing social sustainable knowledge into an abundance of sustainable practice. The Sustainable Multimedia Program provides a combination of resources, education and guidance to support those who seek to become more proactive in the distribution and dissemination of sustainable literature. The intent of this program is to help people gain access to sustainable living and development literature in their local community through existing retail, non-profit, libraries, schools and other municipal facilities.
