Anthony, 

 

The work of Community Rebuilds in Moab might be close enough to apply. .

Hi All, Are people able to share about any and all USA based Habitat For Humanity projects built with Straw?

 

We are talking with our local branch here near San Francisco, which is one of the largest in the country, and all existing habitat presidents would aid our conversations.

 

Thanks all, happy building!

Anthony
