What are earth ships?
A self-sufficient, autonomous building designed to utilize local and recycled materials, the Earthship is built to be as gentle and non-impactful on the planet as possible. These homes generate their own electricity, regulate temperature, and even provide water and food
Earthships are extremely unique structures and there is no specific construction method. They are generally made of earth-packed tires, aluminum cans, glass bottles, cement, adobe, and stucco. Tires are packed with dirt and stacked to create the bones of the home. These tire cores are then covered over with cement or stucco. The same concept is used with aluminum cans or glass bottles.
What am I planning to create?
I want to create a way where agriculture can be sustainable indoors, and use earthships as a way to do that. I want to learn more about the eco-system between pests and pollinators, and how they have a play all within agriculture.
Learning how to design and create an earthship using recycled materials and create a little plant system using the knowledge I learned from my internship at Petals and how they survive in water.
