NEW WEBSITE for all naturalbuilding events, workshops and professionals For all natural building professionals, contractors and potential clients or participants across Australia. We have made a call out for subscriptions to help fund a new websitenaturalbuildingaustralia.org which is seeking to bring together all natural building services, workshops, events, seminars, volunteer opportunities and related products under one umbrella Your support in getting behind this project is critical to get it happening and make it a valuable tool for everyone so that we can provide a central platform for people to get involved in natural building events. Most often when getting around talking about natural building in Australia people are asking, 'how do i find out about these things? or how do I get involved?' and for many people social media isn't always the most convenient way to get the information they are seeking. For natural building professionals and people trying to set up related businesses it's sometimes difficult to reach or access people to fill up workshops and events. Hence by everyone jumping onto one platform it can become the one stop, go-to place for the most relevant and up to date information for events across Australia. As a collective website it can also begin to generate partnerships and links to other organisations to help grow the movement. By not being 'earthship' specific, Naturalbuildingaustralia seeks to be inclusive and incorporate all the styles including cob, mud brick, superadobe, hemp, straw bale, cave house, tree house, tiny house, rewilding, permaculture farm experiences, recycled timber etc. It can also help network and advertise for people with building, drafting, architecture, plumbing, rendering, earth moving, ramming and any other related trade skills to get involved in natural building projects. Professional subscriptions are open and general donations are most welcome. The link to the newsletter with more information and other events coming up is here http://eepurl.com/cclP0P and subscription links are there also If you'd like to get involved please get in touch through http://www.earthshipaustralia.org.au Thanks and please share to anyone interested in supporting this endeavour!
