One of our latest projects

here at Blue Rock Station is

construction of a new plastic

bottle greenhouse.  This

really cool structure is made

using a rammed earth

foundation (tires) incorporates

over 1000 2-liter plastic soft

drink bottles as its walls,

a straw bale north wall as

well as two 55-gallon rain barrels (courtesy of Little Square Farm) into the north

wall.  Our thanks to the students from Clark Montessori High School for their help in constructing this building.  We hope they learned as much from us as we learned from them.  An instruction booklet and video are under development on this project - but in the meantime you can sign up for our fall workshop....
