Bloomsbury Books in Ashland Oregon will host Jim Reiland, a contributing author of a book from the California Straw Building Association. He’ll discuss how straw bale buildings differ from conventional “green” buildings, and how these beautiful homes can be an important part of the effort to mitigate climate change. Learn more about this building system made from locally abundant, carbon sequestering, annually renewable residue from a grain harvest, and how it creates super insulated buildings.
