It has taken us a year to do but we have done it. With the help of a few volunteers we were able to complete the tire work for the north, east and west side of our EarthShip. The last row of tires was just completed August 15th. Approximately 1 year from when we started our first tire. This is the east side retaining wall. This is the east side of the EarthShip inside the home. The little U shaped room is a sun room. The corner is where the master bedroom will be. This is the north wall of the EarthShip. The right corner is the Master Bedroom, the left corner is Arron's bedroom, the back will be a hall way with the Kitchen and Living room in the middle. West side of the EarthShip with another U that will be a sun room as well. This is behind the EarthShip the East side. The back of the North wall of the Earth Ship. The cisterns are nearly buried. The black tube is the cooling tube for the middle of the house. The back of the West wall of the EarthShip.

Hello to the Severin family ^_^ . My name is Beth, I have recently moved to Missouri with my family in the idea to get our own piece of land and build a home/farm but just as recently I have found out about such ideas of sustainable living with an earthship. Now I want one and the more I speak of it to my fiancé he's getting the excitement of it all too. Some of my friends are also interested in it. We live in White Church which is just around the corner from Pomona. I would like it very much if I could come over and learn some of what you learned about building. I would also be willing to help out when I can. You can email me back at the above address.
