Using bales of straw to build homes is an American innovation that developed in the Midwest in the early 20th century. At that time, building materials were scarce, but straw and grasses were plentiful in the prairies and sand-hills. Today straw bale is the most energy-efficient, sustainable way to build a home.
Designer and builder Mark Morgan guides us through the whys and hows of straw bale building. Morgan, a 30-year veteran of the construction industry, including 20 years of green building experience, has a unique and engaging teaching style. He integrates building skills, critical thinking, and spiritual awareness as he shares why straw bale and green building are essential to our current and future wellbeing.
