Biography
We manage a 40 acre wildlife area of the Texas Hill Country in the Edwards Plateau at about 3030 ft above sea level. The region is notable for its karst topography and tall rugged hills of limestone. The terrain throughout the region is punctuated by a thin layer of topsoil and a large number of exposed rocks and boulders, making the region very dry and prone to flash flooding. Native vegetation in the region includes various yucca, prickly pear cactus, native grasses and wildflowers. The predominant trees in the region are Ashe Juniper, Shin Oak and Texas Live Oak. Soil is alkaline consisting of caliche and clay.

Also there might be a light basket that you you can find that would also work and you would not need to crochet.

Green leafy vegetable furnish Vitamins A, C, K, plus B-vitamins.

Carrots, pumpkin and squash furnish beta-carotene in addition to the above mentioned vitamins.

Since the home is 100 years old it would be a shame not to use the tradition plaster technique keep alive the tradition.

Modern techniques are for modern homes.

And as Benjamin pointed out cement might not stick to the walls of traditional plaster.

That is such a lovely home.

This:

We would like to rennovate the old house to maintain its historical value and are not demolition for re-construction.

Archeology shows how past societies thrived in harmony with nature.

Archeology can help folks learn about ancient land management techniques such as food forests, soil, and ancient farming systems.

Leigh mentioned terra preta which is a perfect example of an ancient system.
