    Descripción

    We are a couple from two different continents (Europe,North America) who managed to find each other on a third continent, South America. Four years later we have found ourselves in the beautiful Ozark hills. With raw wooded hills we managed to clear a building site, very large garden and orchard area. Spring 2023 we are welcoming any volunteers for help with completing a straw bale house. You will learn about clay plastering, building with cob, a living/green roof and have the confidence to do it yourself! This area of the US provides with plenty of natural materials for building with. Our experience as a builder, organic farmer and linguist have allowed us to travel around to different continents while exploring different cultures and adopting new ways of construction.

    We are building many natural structures. Mostly including cob, straw, light straw clay, roundwood timbers, and dry stacked stone foundations. We need the help of others for many tasks. Most of the projects around here are infrastructure oriented. Some help in the garden, land clearing, harvesting stones, digging, compacting soils, erecting dry stone foundations are some of the daily works that take place. There will always be something to do. All help here is very basic. Keeping it simple and enjoying the surroundings.

    There are a lot of things to do in our surrounding areas.

Floating, canoeing, kayaking in the crystal clear Niangua river only minutes away. Lead Mine Conservation area is 10 minutes away and includes over 10 miles of hiking trails.

    Yes we allow pets. Just remember we have plants that dogs can run over and dig up. Also this is the countryside so we have ticks and other insects that like dogs.
