We're selling our block! We've started a campaign through Smallknot.com, which is a crowdfunding platform for small, local businesses. We are using this as an opportunity for interested folks to buy our block at discounted prices. All of our packages come with building instructions and a set of building plans. We've also got a couple of other cool rewards for those who want to support this project but aren't ready to build.

Our goal is to raise the money to buy two key pieces of equipment so that we can ramp up compressed earth block production in the new year. Thanks so much for your support!
