When trying to learn how people came from living in mud huts to cob type homes in northern germany.
i allways wondered what a mud hut would have looken like. Bet the wickiup was very close.

 I bet this would be a neat way to first build this on a piece of land and then explore where later to build a cob home.
So glad to hear people being concerned with the natural way of growth of forest etc. ANd useing the by products.

The book How to make a Forest Garden by Patrick Whitefield {found by copy at bookfinder.com}

Is adding natural plants that grow back each year without  replanting etc.[perennials]
