“We currently have two earth building projects in the works here at New Life. The first is an adobe hut with a living roof that we started building during the Winter Solstice Festival in December of last year, which is now very close to completion.

Protecting Earthbag Walls from UV Damage with Shade Cloth
Sunlight will break down polypropylene bags after a few weeks. Here’s a new idea to protect against UV damage. Tarps are big and awkward. Painting the bags is extra work and sort of messy.

Thanks to Ruedi for this tip.
