We appreciate stories from readers who document their projects and want to share what they’ve learned with others. Today’s blog post is from long time contributor Patti Stouter. She’s published some of the best free articles on the Internet. These articles (and everything else related to earthbag building) is archived at EarthbagBuilding.com.

“Earthship development in South Africa. Main goal is to create an information centre of eco- and autarkical houses also for the less fortunate.”
I look forward to hearing more details. Check out their blog for more info.
