» Free Straw Bale Seminar September 22

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

The Jackson County Home Show will be held at the Jackson County Expo Center in Central Point, Oregon this September 21-23. On Saturday, September 22 at 1:30 pm, there will be talk about straw bale construction by a local engineer Nabil Taha of Precision Structural Engineering, Inc. and Designer, Chris Keefe of Organicforms Design. I have done this talk with them on two previous occasions and it is a good introduction into straw bale construction. It is also an opportunity to ask those nagging questions you may have about design and engineering as it relates to straw bale construction. I will not be attending this talk this time around as I will be in LA.

Hi Janie,
I do not have any free seminars planned right now. They tend to pop up on short notice. I just posted a recording of a radio show I was on recently discussing straw bale construction to my blog. That can give you some quick answers. I have several intensive workshops scheduled for this year. You can see those dates at www.StrawBaleWorkshops.com. I hope that helps and thanks for your interest.
