Beschreibung
Hi, we are Francois, Kate, Mateo and Max. Four years ago we built a Straw bale home, on a very special piece of land in the Waipara gorge. The home was made with as much recycled, low or no carbon foot print materials.
We have mostly finished earth building, but would love help from people in our land restoration. We are planting food forest gardens, permercultura gardens and saving a special piece of native bush from evasive weeds.
We have a big love of earthen homes and would like to share some of our experiences and knowledge with people who are interested.
