[Cob] cob in HaitiHenry Raduazo raduazo at cox.netMon Nov 15 08:22:41 CST 2010
I was wondering: Are there any cobbers on this list in Haiti? I have been talking to a non-cob person who has been there. I am trying to get a picture of what is going on. It sounds to me like they need to train a team of Creole speaking people that know cob building, Lorna stove construction, Humanure, Rainwater Harvesting, permaculture skills and retaining wall building skills. There is plenty of Urbanite to work with and there appears to be plenty of clay and grass or hay. It is hard to imagine a peasant culture that can't build their own homes or grow their own food, but that is what seems to exist in Haiti. Ed
