Welcome to the wonderful world of natural building! If you're new to the game, here is a roadmap through The Mud Home to help you:

1. Start by considering which natural building technique is for you. After that, if you are considering a mud home, read Mud Building Techniques Overview.
2. Learn why you don't want to use concrete.
3. Get inspired both in my Inspiration Hub, and by my own story.
4. Read "How to Build a Natural Home - A Beginner's Guide."
