Profile: French passive solar straw bale house w/ foraging nearby

Lots of great topics and discussion.

Excerpt from desciption:
'Food is where his project becomes something more than “self-sufficiency.” He grows what he can, forages what he can’t—and then he goes a step further into what he calls “tending the wild.” Instead of clearing and controlling nature, he collaborates with it: inoculating mushrooms on logs, encouraging edible plants to thrive, even turning a wet patch of land into a cattail pantry. “Tending the wild is sometimes easier than erasing everything that’s there and starting from scratch," says Mathieu, "it does all the farming for you.” '

Here is the more info:
If you’re curious about earth-and-straw construction, off-grid systems, permaculture, wild foods, or what it really takes to live with less—this one is a full, grounded tour.

Very interesting! Thanks J.P. for finding and posting about this project. A complete comfortable low impact handmade house with so many sensible features. I'd also like to see more of his earth sheltered greenhouse and garden in summer.

Hey Nancy,

So pleased you found it and enjoyed!

He is indeed a wise young man.

Looking forward to more of his updates as well!
