There is a very interesting talk and home tour happening this Saturday, Oct. 26th from 10am-2pm at the owner-built home of Chad Mathrani who owns Vermont Natural Homes based out of Brattleboro, VT.  Chad will be sharing lots of great information about how and why he built his beautiful timber frame and straw bale home in our challenging New England Climate.  This is a great talk and tour for anyone who is interested in building new, working with natural materials, doing a deep energy retrofit, and/or seeing an artful, hand-built home in our area.  The 1600 sq. ft. home burns a little over a cord of firewood per year and is built to last for generations.  Chad is a wealth of information and this should be a really great event!

Address for the talk and tour is 490 Akley Rd. Brattleboro, VT 05301. The event goes from 10am-2pm!
