NBC-East/Spirit Presenters Update and Web Sites

Imagine if you will you, your family and friends stomping on wet clay mixed 
with NY States finest straw and sand, can you feel it, the cool earth oozing 
between your toes?  Or perhaps stacking large "fuzzy straw bricks" in a 
circular pattern to dizzying heights than capping that structure with a 
bamboo truss roof covered with thatch.  Hard to imagine?  Sound crazy? Want 
to play and learn than plan to join us at the Natural Building 
Colloquium-East 2000 / "Building with Spirit". 

NBC-East/Spirit is weeklong unique hands-on natural building and permaculture 
educational exploration.

To see photos from the 1998 Natural Building Colloquium-East take a look at
