New here and excited to be here. I didnt know this existed and have been trying to learn more about sustainable housing for awhile now. My goals are to have a homestead that is sustainable and something that can last a long time. Im hoping to eventually have a little commune sort of group where we can all build our houses and help out as a community. The biggest thing keeping me from that is not really knowing where to start the process in my region and how can I add some more convential options to an Earthen home as I dont want to live completely off the grid
