Vermont Straw Bale Adventures

A Vermont couple's adventure in building a super-efficient, near-zero energy straw bale home in a cold climate. This house features a recycled 150-year-old timber frame, bale walls, a revolutionary new solar heat and hot water system, a grid-tied PV system with battery back-up, minimal use of concrete, using local and sustainable products whenever available.

Greetings!

Welcome to my straw bale adventure -- also my first-ever experience with blogging. I'm sure I have lots to learn, so hang in there and come back often -- I'll be updating and learning the ropes as we go.

Feel free to leave comments, or suggest links to other natural building web sites -- there's a lot of great information out there for us all to share.

Clear skies,

Brad
