Returning to Michigan, I became a collaborator in the Strawbale Studio Project. I now educate (and learn) as much as I can about natural building & sustainable living through workshops, internships, presentations, exhibits & outreach at Strawbale Studio (strawbalestudio.org) I had the privilege of illustrating theHand-Sculpted House Book,The Natural Plaster Book, andThe Cobber’s Companion, and being a start-to-finish collaborator on theKensington Kids Cottage, located within theKensington Metropark, at the Farm Center. Especially life-changing were my adventures during 1979 & 1980 when I received a Masters Degree in Social Ecology fromGoddard College in Vermont. I have been exploring Sustainability, Appropriate Technology & Design with Nature over the years, in my work withUpland Hills Ecological Awareness Center, Oxford, Michigan, and through my activities in natural building & other natural living skills. Now is a time of networking, sharing, coming together to envision & create. I am so thankful for this journey." } ] } ] ```
