Would there be any interest in working out a massive cob-strawbale workshop
in Connecticut? A time table for this project would be summer '99. When I
say massive- I mean 6 or 7 structures about 300-500 sqft in size, well
plumbing and solar electricity. It would take place in one of two
extremes- a very rural landscape, or a very urban (distressed) area. (land
has not been purchased yet)
Some friends and I are working on an eco-villgae and want to use natural,
sustainable building methods, and to educate the general populous about the
viability if these methods. So a really big workshop sounds like a good
way to approach those goals. Also, it sounds like a great way to work with
people that have strong backrounds in sustainable design, and experience in
working at these sorts of things.
Thanks for your time,
Grace Benjamin
