We are under two weeks from the start of our straw bale training and build! On Friday October 1st, 650 bales will be arriving on a semi from western Wisconsin in front of our small 1/8 of an acre lot. I have cajoled some friends and volunteers into helping us unload the semi and get the bales stacked and ready for Monday's build start.
Are you interested in getting hands on experience with straw bale construction and helping us with our wall assembly? From October 4 (Monday) through roughly October 10 (Sunday), we will be working with community members, volunteers, and friends to assemble all of our walls and getting on the first coat of plaster. Come join us! We have weekday shifts from 8am-11:30am, 12pm-3pm, and 3pm-6pm. Saturday and Sunday we will be working from 8:30-12:30pm and 1pm-5:30pm. Lunch and snacks provided! We have all the tools you will need (maybe bring your own gloves, if you prefer) and will teach you everything that you need, depending on your interest. Sign up to volunteer here and tell your friends!
