Stucco Continues


Stuccoing North Wall (Formally known as south garage).

Recycled Materials



Recycled Wood
Integrating our waste streams into our lifestyle is important to us. We used redwood from two old decks in most of the building of our greenhouse. Incidentally, used redwood, milled down, makes beautiful trim.

Permaculture Design Principle #5
Use and value renewable resources and services - Make the best use of nature's abundance to reduce our consumptive behavior
and dependence on non-renewable resources.
