Opportunities to participate in
Earthen Building projects to enhance mental physical & spiritual health.
Natural building can be incredibly therapeutic for so many reasons. The process of helping to build an Earthen structure with others can provide long-lasting feelings of satisfaction and accomplishment. People of all walks of life from young children, disabled, elderly, mentally challenged individuals, people with addictions, and people with chronic pain can all benefit from the myriad of healing properties of natural building.
We would like to offer Earthen building to homeless people as a way for them to help overcome from some of their emotional, mental disorders, while helping to construct their own houses and other earthen structures.
We would also like to start working with therapists who have clients suffering from depression from a lack of purpose and provide a fulfilling activity.
