Tom's Greenhouse Don Anderson (former executive director of Wasatch Community Gardens) invited Wayne to present photographs he and Colleen had taken for the Strawbale Home Plan book to workshop participants. He also joined others for a delightful day of strawbale raising. Don and others finished the building before fall. |

DeClerk/Dominick Residence Wayne conducted a two day weekend workshop with Keri and DeWitt and a dozen participants to assemble 75% of the bales in a 1600 square foot residence. The frame and roof had been constructed prior to the workshop allowing for building without concern for weather. |

Having experience in workshops and designing houses for others, we decided to walk the talk and do a straw bale home for ourselves, from design to construction to occupancy. We have had a wonderful time and moved into the completed home in the summer of 2006. |

This greenhouse, restroom and learning center serve a community garden. We conducted two workshops, one strawbale and one timber frame during October 2004. Additional finishing work took place Spring 2005. The greenhouse will be heated passively with south oriented windows and roof. Strawbale walls provide insulation and the thermal mass inside will retain heat. |

I was invited to conduct a four day workshop to install straw bale wall panels in an office/education building designed by EDA architects. Workshop participants completed the work in four days with great gusto and enthusiasm, from installing bales to finish plaster. |

Enthused and excited after attending my first straw bale workshop, we constructed a concrete block garden wall and plastered it with an earthen plaster that included clay, sand, wheat paste, and linseed oil. |
