I just received this email a moment ago and want to share it with you. If you feel so inclined, please vote for this woman’s idea. It will help her and her husband attend a straw bale workshop, help them build their straw bale home, and will help bring awareness about straw bale construction to Habitat for Humanity in hope that they start utilizing this great technology in their projects.
Here’s the email and the link to vote:
Pepsi is hosting a Refresh Everything contest in which my husband and I entered. Our submission? A request to help us get to your Ottawa workshop and build our own straw bale house in New Brunswick.
In turn this will raise awareness to our fellow Canadians as well we plan to donate any remaining money to the local Habitat for Humanity. We hope to train, video tape, document, etc so that Habitat for Humanity can begin building more homes with straw instead of wood.
We’d love to have your support as well as the support of your followers.

Thanks for your support!
