Greetings fellow straw enthusiasts, 

  

I have a question for y’all. Our organization Red Feather Development Group is looking into possible funding via one of the national housing nonprofits that receive federal dollars to administer a  HUD Self-help homeownership opportunity program (SHOP). Do any of you know if HUD recognizes straw bale construction as fundable housing? Red Feather doesn ’t build enough homes a year to qualify on their own and would need to be umbrella’d under a larger program, but again the bigger question would be HUD recognizing straw bale construction. 

  

Thanks for any input. 

Mark
