Putting Food (and Housing) By

Most recent to least, some photos of the Seth-Anna slab.

Insulated concrete forms (ICFs), assembled and ready to be filled with concrete.

Seth on a hot one, putting it all together. Don't worry, the house will not be built ENTIRELY out of styrofoam, despite appearances to the contrary.

Full (almost) view of the slab.


Slab pouring party!!!

Tom and Patrick, preparing forms for concrete pads to use up extra concrete.


Pouring concrete pads with leftovers. Seth, Tyler, Danielle, Cretia, Minh, Anna, Jonny and mystery person.


Keeping our eyes on the prize.


Gib and Jonny supervising while Seth power-trowels the drying slab for a smooth finish.


Gib screeding the 'crete, Chris and Tyler moving it around while Anna chats with the concrete delivery man.

The 7:30 pm to 1:30 am salsa canning party: 16 gallons of salsa, done!

Our main fuel, sea salt dark chocolate.


Gib and Seth, nutty at midnight.


Tasting the fruits of our labors, halfway done.
