@WONDOCTORJ this is in Manatee County Florida - rural area outside of Sarasota. The drawback with earthships is (a) extremely labor intensive & (b) too "far out" looking for the average home buyer. We've developed a completely new construction method with all the off grid benefits but none of the above two drawbacks ; zero energy homes below stick build costs; hurricane proof.

@WONDOCTORJ there's no concrete in those tires; that's tightly compacted dirt. Each tire has about 6 wheel barrow loads packed into it; they weigh about 320 lbs each.
