We're MAKING IT UP as We Go! Getting Ready for 20' High Retaining Walls

We are literally making it up as we go! We signed a contract and we need to get the sides of the parapet walls ready for the retaining walls to be poured next to them. We made a tentative plan, and we got to work making necessary changes as we figure out the best way to accomplish this unconventional off grid build - in other words, we are making it up as we go!

▬ ABOUT US ▬
We are Rich & Kathie, a retired couple building our dream home: A SUPER ENERGY EFFICIENT OFF GRID earth sheltered home in the Adirondacks!

The house will be covered with about 30" of soil which helps to maintain an internal temperature between 45 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit in winter & summer respectively. This means that in the winter we will only need minimal heat that we plan to provide with a small wood burning stove and we shouldn't need any air conditioning in the summer at all!

With inflation right now, the energy efficiency of this house is a HUGE Plus! But, it also means that we have a super tight budget that is getting tighter by the day. For this reason we DIY everything we reasonably can and find creative ways to save money such as repurposing.

Please subscribe and join us to see how we manage the challenges of staying in budget and exactly how energy efficient this house actually is when it is done!

We appreciate all your support :-)
