Welcome to you too Brett !



Wow I never knew so many people posted I have not checked into this thread in a wile....

The drawings are not perfect..... I only drew the root system that way because it was the easiest to draw for me.... LOL But i'm not that good at drawing and it was easier for me to make the roots go straight down instead of along the ground....

I have thought about this and also built alot of tree houses.... and have done landscaping all my life.... so I know about tree roots intensively, even as we rip them out with excavators....

I didn't make this because I thought it would be easier, I thought it wound be cool to live in a house of my own art work and designing.... even if it takes a little more work and thanking to achieve this goal...

The whole idea of using earth bags then making a cob earthen cement floor is very interesting.... Thanks so much!

I also know the cellar needs to be below frost level.... I only drew it in that part of the picture to fill in the rest of the background..... LOL never did thank about that wile drawing...

Also about haing everything off the limbs.... cool idea never thought about that... who is this Guy in washington?

I have attached the lasted picture to my art collection of dreams.....

Not much different... lol

Here is what the project is about..... thanks so much for your website... it has been a huge help...

Pioneer in the 21st century...

Tiny Eco Family Farm Homestead, with sustainable permaculture and responsible animal husbandry, where every element plays it role in the eco system.

Using on contour permaculture practices and garden of Eden principles with as minimal damage to the land, plants, and animals as possible. No bulldozers or heavy equipment used, only hand tools and time.

Buildings made of Cob, Hay bale Cob, Cord wood cob, and logs that are naturally available, locally traded, and sustainable.

All power is through, rocket stove mass heater + water heater, solar panels, wind mill, water wheel, and using ones hands, through hard work, using only the power and size that one needs.

To change a piece of desolate land into a living eco system that is self supporting, for future generations can enjoy the fruits of my hard work and time sowing seeds of hope!

A place one can learn, rest, breath wile eating healthy. A place they once use to know as home, where the family is and beauty abounds.


The Documentary...

This video will show a complete cycle of advents and adventurers of setting out and homesteading, and everything that goes along, for the next five years.

This video will include finding raw land, and transforming it into the garden of eden, using Sustainable Permaculture practices, Garden of Eden principals, Eco Building, Eco Landscaping, Eco Power and homesteading
principals.

This Video will show everything from start to finish! From setting out and finding land, to changing that land slowly over time in a beautiful family farm. Using everything a pioneer in the 21st century would use.

This will be a DIY documentary showing all aspects of farm upkeep to creating and maintaining eco building. Using Solar panels and Rocket Stove Mass Heater + Water heaters. To preserving and drying food for the winter, and responsible animal husbandry.

Sustainable Permaculture Organic Tiny Eco Family Farm Homestead

Sustainabil-ity is the capacity to endure. In ecology the word describes how biological systems remain diverse and productive over time. Long-lived and healthy wetlands and forests are examples of sustainable biological systems. For humans, sustainability is the potential for long-term maintenance of well being, which has ecological, economic, political and cultural dimensions.

Permaculture is a branch of ecological design, ecological engineering, and environmental design that develops sustainable architecture and self-maintained agricultural systems modeled from natural ecosystems.

Organic foods are foods that are produced using methods of organic farming – that do not involve modern synthetic inputs such as synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers. Organic foods are also not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents, or chemical food additives. Only heirloom seeds

Tiny, The small house movement is a popular description for the architectural and social movement that advocates living simply in small homes.

Eco-logy is the scientific study of interactions among organisms and their environment, such as the interactions organisms have with each other and with their abiotic environment

Family, a group of individuals living under one roof and usually under one head. a group of people united by certain convictions or a common affiliation.

Farm is an area of land, or, for aquaculture, lake, river or sea, including various structures, devoted primarily to the practice of producing and managing food (produce, grains, or livestock).

You can put these bolts up for the roof, and make then tight so the trees move less at the base...

In pic cob 10, you can see the outside wall of the house, with the roof attached to the tree for base and holds the trees together so there minimum movement in the lower part of the evergreens.

in pic 11, you can see a cut view of the inside of the straw bale cob tree house. You can see the foundation, large rocks to smaller for drainage of water. with sand as the top layer. Over that earthen cement, and then a cob floor. The walls are on the wooden frame, that is resting on the earthen cement. Roof is separate from that walls holding the trees together and giving a cheep roof.

In pic 14, and 13, you can see how a house can be made to fit any circumstances. Depending on level of the ground, and how the trees are growing.

Thanks, any questions?
