Tank Clean Specialist
Walter Beasley trained under Uncle Tilo and received his certification from ARCSA - American Rainwater Catchment Systems Association. Before becoming a Clean Water Partner working with Uncle Tilo’s Clean Water LLC to assist the community with clean water, Walter Beasley attended Hobart & William Smith Colleges where he earned a B.A. in philosophy.
Walter worked in construction for years, built his own home in Maine, and renovated another home, both of which he sold to pursue his dream of moving to Hawaii. In his free time he collects seeds and plants fruit trees and medicinal plants to build an edible food forest on his farm in the heart of the last old growth forest on the Big Island.
According to Walter, living off-grid with his partner and 6-month daughter, has its challenges and rewards. Learning to live with solar power and sharing knowledge and tools as to how to catch, store and clean rainwater for household use and consumption are interesting examples of the challenges. The rewards include enjoying the cleanest air in the world, fresh nutritious food, as well as safe and delicious water from rainwater harvesting for drinking and bathing. On his days off, he can usually be found practicing permaculture in his small tree nursery, swimming or playing frisbee.
