Jack Dody of Abundaculture.org takes us on a tour of his self-built tiny guest house. Jack built the house himself for about $7,000. It is about 240 square feet and includes passive solar design, rainwater collection, a complete bathroom with running water and a composting toilet, 12V solar power, and a woodstove for the coldest nights.
I heard he has a house made with ‘weed bales’. Not sure if that’s his main house or not. I’ll be checking his website shortly for more ideas.
Weed house, eh? Like marijuana or undesirable grasses? :D
Tumble weeds. I lived not far from there for quite a few years. It’s a desolate, wind blown high prairie with not much more than weeds, cactus and broken down fences. Back roads are loaded with tumble weeds against the fences. Hardly a tree in sight.
