Cohousing-L Mailing List: straw bale common house

[Linda Felch (lfelch]

We at Heathcote Community found the following useful in our research for 
a straw bale common house.

    * Strawbale Construction Planbook of Easy to Build Homes:
       
       The Community Eco-design Network in Minneapolis has just published
       this planbook which has 10 small house plans, a common house for
       cohousing, and 4 construction details that incorporate strawbales.
       Additional details on our ideas for organizing a builders co-op
       and how the co-op can develop a program which helps people attain
       financial independence are also included. COST: $10, includes
       shipping and handling.
       Please make checks out to 'Pillsbury Neighborhood Services' and
