Packout day today! We’re working on the front tire wall. Filling in the spaces between the tires with cement and pop/beer cans. PM me if you’re interested in a tour of TheDoighouse or if would like to volunteer. We are accepting 2 or 3 local volunteers for the occasional workday.

Very happy to see how far Simply Not Square has come along I was there in the beginning, visited them last month, go go go! https://www.cbc.ca//earthship-sustainable-dream-home-eco-f

Matt Sych and I have been making the most of these quiet days by collaborating on projects. We scrapped together this birdhouse-inspired Outhouse for Wells Gray Home Hardware's "Stay @ Home Pallet Challenge". Tap the photo, then click the ‘like’ button to help us win!

#TBT to a little #earthship greenhouse project that catalyzed a LOT w/ Living Solutions Collective #passivesolargreenhouse #salvagedmaterials #upcycling @ Langley, British Columbia

I'm going to be giving a webinar about our very awesome Zero House project for the GreenHome Institute on Wednesday. If you're locked up at home, why not find out how we built a carbon-storing, zero-waste, zero-toxin and fully modular home?

Does anyone know what happened to Alternative Solutions Resource initiative? I'm trying to find Alternative Solutions Resources for atypical building enclosures. ASRi did one for straw bale in 2013. ANYONE KNOW OF PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS RESOURCES FOR ATYPICAL BUILDING ENCLOSURES (light straw clay, chip & slip, hempcrete etc)? ASRi's website doesnt exist anymore.
