We understand the importance of a families sustainability and value the life lessons from a lifetime of sustainable living. We know that self reliance puts the power in our hands which makes us less dependent upon companies to provide for our energy needs. This gives the whole family immense empowerment.
A sustainable foundation begins with clotheslines. As creatures of the earth, we enjoy staying grounded in the earth with clotheslines that embody the spirit of self sufficiency along with a caring touch for mother nature.

For most households, the clothes dryer is the most energy consuming
appliance in the household. Rationally, if you were looking to save the
most amount of money around the house, with minimal effort, a
clothesline would be an easy solution that comes with immense benefits.
Line drying your clothes consumes zero natural resources and ultraviolet
rays from sunlight destroy viruses and kill bacteria. Clotheslines not
only make financial sense, they also offer a greater sense of well being
knowing that you are truly making a difference in the world.
Clotheslines empower people to be self sufficient while dramatically
reducing our carbon footprint.

Right-to-Dry
Clotheslines are banned in many HOA's, condo's, and apartments across the nation. The "Right-to-Dry" movement has pushed six states to pass laws voiding clothesline bans and making them unenforceable.
These states include Florida, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, and Vermont. In addition, a 1979 Oregon Law states that any restrictions on "solar radiation as a source for heating, cooling or electrical energy" are "void and unenforceable." Clotheslines rely on solar energy as part of Oregon's Solar Rights.
The states in green below have laws that void any prohibition on clotheslines even contracts with HOA's, condo's, or apartment communities while the grey states listed below protect our Right-to-Dry, they don't override contracts that prohibit clotheslines.
