Our Straw House

Welcome!

Hi! We're Mark & Linda. Welcome to our Straw Bale website. This website documents the on-going project of building our Straw Bale house just outside the town of Pakenham, Ontario, Canada in Lanark County.

First, we will be building the garage. It is our 'practice building': we will make lots of mistakes ... and hopefully we will learn from these mistakes!
Then the house. Click on 'Construction' to see what we have done so far ...
