Dear strawbaling friends, we started this web site with the desire to connect all the strawbaling people of Europe and to provide a place on the internet where all information regarding the European strawbale building can be found. Our intention is to create a comprehensive directory with contacts for all the sb builders working in Europe, calendar with all the trans-European events and projects and gradually become place where sb professionals are proud to publish their articles and news. Through this we hope to become a good reliable resource for everyone interested in sb in Europe. As you can imagine this is lot of work and it will take us time and energy to get there. Project of this sort cannot be and effort of an individual, it must be and effort of a community. Therefore we urge you to register with us, inform your network of this website, publish your events and help us build the website bigger and better by giving feedback or volunteering to do some work like we have been doing ourselves in the past year and a half. Please read more about how you can help. It is all about Straw, People and Empowerment here!
