An inexpensive way to get assistance from me is to join our lovely closed Mud Home Facebook Group. I’m on there most weekdays to offer advice to plasterers, tiny off-gridders, and earthbaggers alike.

Unlike a lot of the larger public forums which can prove something of a free-for-all, our group is a safe, nurturing space with very limited numbers of members. This enables me to give people the support they need. There's a big difference between free advice/comments (many of which are misinformed), and someone with 10 years experience, who knows the whole story of your build, and cares about the outcome.

How to join? All you have to do is pledge $15 a month to The Mud Home on Patreon. You will have access to the Facebook group as long as you continue your contribution. You will be among a team of very nice folk in exactly the same position that you are, all over  the world.

Sorry, the Facebook group is currently full.
