A 'Straw Bale' Green Drinks

For the first time on Tuesday, Steinbach's Green Drinks event had a theme - straw bale construction. We were delighted to have lots of attendees with personal experience, as well as questions about this prairie-appropriate building style. We explored information specific to Manitoba including financing, climate, building codes, and economics - with experienced builders and some folks considering a new project.

Since our usual venue in Steinbach (LeKoka on PTH 12) was closed for the civic holiday, we had to make a last-minute change in venue to Gabriel Gagne's house in La Broquerie. Our apologies to anyone who was not able to make it to Gabriel's - feel free to contact us if we can help you get some of the information/contacts you missed out on. Fortunately, you're always welcome at the next Green Drinks! Watch your email for reminders!
