I was part of this year’s build crew, and it was a real treat! JR is a ringer, super knowledgeable, fun to be around, and I’m looking forward to working with him again. If you’re interested in joining us for this type of work, head on out to the forums at Permies and comment your support for one of the Theme Weeks!

Woah. That's going to be a big root cellar! Tiny detail that was delightful: The birds chirping in the background. The nature out there must be a wonderful and peaceful to experience.

An ambitious project! I can't wait to see the future evolution of the space. :)

The integration with the landscape looks really nice! Using thermal mass to create a cool environment to store food is one of the smartest ideas for a homestead. Can’t wait to see it finished!

You're lucky to have all those trees and the heavy equipment. It is a good plan though.

I stayed in Allerton Abbey during the PTJ, and when it was 90F outside, it stayed less than 70F inside, so I think this will work! You are basically building a cave.

This membrane - is it synthetic in any way? If so, what are the alternatives to that (replace with natural materials).

We like to think that future membranes will involve a lot of clay and bark.

@@LitoGeorge We do a lot of experimenting. And this is an experiment. We tend to do a half dozen experiments at once - in one project. And we are constantly tempted to do 200 experiemnts at once. I choose to limit our experiments to not-too-much-in-one-go.

@@paulwheaton completely fair point. Since time is finite for all of us, I wonder if you can see the point of view that experimenting with natural methods (and hopefully succeeding) would be a better expenditure of time/effort than succeeding with synthetic/ plastic stuff and then having to start the learning curve all over again with natural stuff. Seems like a bit of a waste of time, given the permies general feel of plastic/synthetic "ick" as you all call it.

@@LitoGeorge sepp's design uses 10x the plastic, so we are already improving. At the same time, this is a log intensive design, as opposed to the more conventional cement/concrete. I think we are making some pretty big leaps here already.

How big of pipes to bring in air and let out gasses? Will there be vents on them?
