i;m 46 yrs old and when i grow up i want to be just like u guys i don't want to be wasteful. i only want a 2brms and 1 bath house built only with recycled materials. my family cant understand what hav happen to my brain. yes i loved the 70's clothing, style. they think i need some type of counseling. but i know they r da 1's that need help. i will build my dream home one day soooon. u guys look so free

[stevenBig1]

short hair DONT CARE!!

[niamh2739]

do you guys have to get permits to build? did you have to have the house inspected? was this expensive to build?

[CowboyNiceguy]

@niamh2739  I dont think they would need "permits". Its private land.

[roscoe91856]

Nicely done. You're great hosts.

[reclaimedwood]

Great video... We've posted a video you might be interested in as well, which tells a story about reclaimed lumber...

[sparc5]

are you guys allowed to have TVs?

[tommyshere]

I built my small home/cabin from recycled materials,

[CarlosMerighe]

[tradogg3]

very cool house guys! :)

[noselfnoproblemo]

inspiring!

Cattail fluff gives the plaster tensile strength, meaning it holds together better with fiber added.

[gaiagale]

Thank you for sharing how you work with the land and your local community to build your home♥

i'm curious about the purpose of the addition of cattail fluff to the plaster♥

This was on 30 Days with Morgan Spurlock.  Very cool community!

[Freealize]

Nicely made video.

Larkspur is magnificent! I hope you outgrow it just as I arrive.

[sparc5]

But does it have plumbing?

[Onjade]

it has water that they use but they don't have bathrooms they recycle their waste. Hu-manure is what they call it. they sprinkle sawdust over it they they use it as fertilizer for their plants, Everything is recycled, and it does reduce harm on the enviroment more then most would think

[dionysusstar]

Great video...thanks for posting.

[turuanu]

Very inspirational. Gathering ideas for my future plans for life.

[turuanu]

Well, make it "inspiring", too. :)

[usmartine]
