House of Trash -- Our Ohio show 410

Our Ohio visits a house made entirely of recycled materials -- one of few and the only one in Ohio. The farmers who built it are pioneers in the idea of modern homesteading and being completely self-sufficient. The owners also raise organic chickens, llamas and vegetables. Visit OurOhio.org to learn more! From Our Ohio show 410, produced in 2009.

I live in the Dayton area and I've been looking at sustainable-living approaches for when I go to build my first house. I was just wondering how you guys got around zoning issues as well as how your house handles the extreme weather in Ohio (Hot, Humid Summers and Freezing, Snowy Winters). Thanks!

The can shed is artistic. They need to keep on that track of modern artistic sheds.

Very cool
