I am thinking about giving 3 day workshops where lay people would learn to build * a nebraska style load bearing #strawhouse, * prefabrication of timber/straw panels, * straw bale retrofitting and * basic plaster skills. Would that be something you would travel to Germany for?

Errands to run this morning, am number 16 in line. Despite the cold temps outside I found an open window, so that's my spot for the time being. With 😷 and handknit beanie 🧶 🙂
