This home is in Goshen and we are building this as an example home for people to see what this material is really like.
This home is a 1600 Sq. Ft. Timber Framed house built by the crew of Village Carpentry on a foundation system that has 70% less concrete than the standard system. |

Hempcrete is fireproof and healthy
Here is a fire test that we performed using a glass blowing torch at the start of our foray into this material. Not only is it fireproof but it helps to eliminate other building materials form the building that are full of toxic chemicals. Hempcrete is based on lime so it is naturally antimicrobial so there is a reduced risk of mold in your home. Also the walls are monolithic so you won't have small furry housemates to worry about. |
