"Finding professional places to learn natural building methods are hard today and was even harder in the '90s. Emily Wetherbee took matters into her own hands and stitched together an education between multiple degree programs. Her process could help inform and inspire today’s efforts to teach natural building at the college level".

About the Magazine:

"In the face of climate crisis and increasing alienation from each other and the Earth, we believe another world is possible. Our goals are to bring a critical perspective to conventional practice, imagine alternatives, and connect designers, builders, and dreamers. We offer both an uncomplicated introduction to natural building, and a rigorous review of the latest developments. We learn from the past and present to help each other build an autonomous future.

From its beginning in 1992, The Last Straw has been an outlet to explore ideas of a better world through the lens of building methods and materials and the humans who use them. Now over 24 editors, three publishers, and hundreds of contributors have continued the long conversation about building and dwelling".
