The project is a 2400 square foot residence in mid construction. Straw bale walls will be partially or completely in place and exposed. Construction is a post and beam structure with locally harvested wheat straw bale infill. Other features include radiant slab heating, solar orientation and green house. Tom Fisher will conduct a tour and introductory discussion of various green building and straw bale construction techniques.
Children are most welcome.
However they must be in the immediate company of parents on the construction site. There are nearby fields and streams where they must also be accompanied. Rest room facilities are available only for emergencies. No alcohol please.
