Workshops
Upfil Farm Florida Earthbag Workshop
Hi Owen, We are building one of your home designs near Gainesville, Florida. It’s this one (http://www.dreamgreenhomes.com/plans/roundhouse-dome-cluster.htm) with straight walls, not domed. It’s a permitted/coded build. The project already has county approval, and we’re gearing up for a workshop to start the actual earthbag part of construction.
