EARTHSHIPS
Earthships are super energy and water efficient homes that are typically off-grid but can also be grid connected. This means little to no water and electricity bills plus the empowering feeling of self-sufficiency!
They are made with natural materials such as earth and straw and up-cycled materials such as tyres and bottles.
An array of amazing and beautiful design features integrate ingeniously to ensure that winter sun gets in and summer sun stays out, resulting in glorious indoor living conditions without the need for an air-conditioner.
A beautiful indoor food producing garden is also part of the typical (non-tropical) Earthship design.
Earthship construction methods are easy to do yourself so you can save money by putting in your own labour and only pay the builder to do the stuff you can't do. It is ideal for owner-builders.

THE WORKSHOP
This workshop is designed to introduce you to the Earthship concept and give you some hands-on experience so that you can evaluate how an Earthship may be appropriate for you - if you are thinking of doing something similar one day, or just interested in learning more about the movement, this workshop will be a great way to understand what is involved with running an Earthship workshop.
It will also introduce you to like minded souls and be an entry point into the wonderful world of natural building!
The workshop is intended for reasonably fit and healthy people capable of getting physical on a construction site.
If this is not your cup of tea then please consider booking in for a guided tour of Earthship Ironbank or a BnB stay.
Gain hands-on experience with a range of Earthship construction techniques including:
The tour will address all the key Earthship concepts:
Opportunities to ask all your Earthship questions and contribute to energising discussions related to the movement with like minded individuals.
Camping
Camping is included to help participants who are not within easy driving distance although you are very welcome to camp even if you are local and we would love to have you in our camping community space!
Food
All food and water will be provided on work days. The majority of the meals will be nourishing vegan and vegetarian food. Drinking water will always be available.
All meals will be orchestrated by our amazing Community Crew who will teach YOU how to make the kitchen hum! There will be a roster for either food preparation or cleaning duties (your choice). Expect to be on "kitchen duty" once, as a means of contributing to the community rhythm and flow.
Transport
You will need to provide your own transport to Goolwa, although you may be able to share rides via some organising - a Facebook page will be setup to facilitate this. There will be limited camping space for vans, buses, caravans etc so please indicate if this is your preferred method of camping on your application form. We will fit in as many as possible!
It will also be possible to walk/cycle/skate into the main street from the build site.
THE VENUE(S)
The construction site is in Goolwa, South Australia, a 1hr drive south of Adelaide, right next to the Coorong. The word ‘Goolwa’ means “elbow” in the Indigenous Ngarrindjeri language, and refers to a bend in the Murray river near to where the Murray mouth is located. The Earthship will be built on a level, suburban block, opposite a green space and with the wetlands just around the corner. The block is next to some friendly neighbours and is walking distance to the river.
The Tour will be at Earthship Ironbank which is a bed and breakfast in Ironbank in the Adelaide Hills, 40min drive from the CBD and airport, co-located with Marty and Zoe Freney’s strawbale home on 4 acres where they have established a permaculture property. This pioneering project has broken new ground in Australia, inspiring many other similar projects. It demonstrates that you can get council approval for an “Earthship”, it shows how the Earthship can be adapted to suit local conditions (and regulations) and it enables people to experience off-grid Earthship living. Tour Date: to be advised... may not suit interstate or long distance visitors - sorry!
THE STUDENTS
We are looking for open-mined, fun-loving people with the desire (and the capability) for some hard physical labour. Earthships can be built with machines or with people power. There is no right or wrong way to do it, but one great advantage of people power is that they are powered by a renewable fuel (called food) rather thank stinky, dangerous, non-renewable fossil fuels.
THE TUTORS
please note that all tutors are to be confirmed according to the number of people enrolled in each workshop
Martin Freney is one of world's most enthusiastic and prolific Earthship builders, designers and researchers. In fact Michael Reynolds, Earthship god-father, refers to him as "the data guy" because of Marty's research that involves monitoring the thermal performance (temperature, humidity) of Earthships. Marty is the designer and owner-builder of Earthship Ironbank, Australia’s first council approved Earthship which is a wildly popular BnB. When he is not teaching product design and sustainable design at the University of South Australia (part time) he is designing, building and researching Earthships. He has designed numerous Earthships throughout Australia via his sustainable design consultancy Earthship Eco Homes. He has visited Taos, New Mexico, USA - home of the Earthship - twice, once as an intern in 2008 and a second time in 2011 as part of his PhD which investigated the thermal performance of Earthships and their eco footprint compared to other types of housing. He has built Earthships with Earthship Biotecture in the USA, Indonesia and Australia.
Charles Swain has engaged in the University of life completing multiple phds with many high distinctions (self marked). He has spent the better part of the last five years travelling Australia in a troopy with a dingo, building Earthships, cooking on a fire and living under the stars. The five years before that were not much more stable either, travelling the world, living in strange places and shaping perspectives from even stranger strangers. The most important developmental time perhaps spent in the shadows of South Africa. In 2015 after flying into Vancouver, buying a van to live in and driving the 10,000kms to New Mexico. He attended the Earthship Academy in Taos, New Mexico and has worked on a variety of Australian Earthship projects throughout Australia (SA, NSW, TAS). To say he enjoys a challenge is simply a way to cover up the fact that he downright refuses to take the paths already well travelled. He and his partner are currently living near Willunga, in a 40 foot school bus, with four dogs and a beautiful baby boy!
Bryan Carman is a designer and project facilitator with a focus on sustainability. He has led a number of creative builds/fit-outs around Adelaide including: Ancient World Bar, Tuxedo Cat, Degroot Coffee and Arthur Arthouse. Bryan started his Earthship journey in 2009 volunteering for month build in Texas. Since then he’s graduated from the Earthship Academy and worked on Earthships in Colorado, Adelaide and NSW. Other sustainable projects include: building water treatment for a home in Kadita Eco village Israel, running geodesic dome building workshops, working for EcoShelta Sydney, and assisting sustainable pioneer Art Ludwig prototype an earthquake-resistant mud home. Bryan recently completed a Permaculture Design Course with Jeff Lawton at his ‘Greening the Desert’ site in Jordan.
ANNOUNCING NEW "COMMUNITY CREW" MEMBERS!!!
These new crew members have attended past Earthship workshops and are now volunteering their time to step into leadership roles, both on the worksite and around the campsite by facilitating the daily rhythms and flows of community life.
Ellen Clements is one of the wonderful Earthship Inman Valley Earthshippers. She masterminded the camp kitchen and was a keen construction worker too, but perhaps her greatest contribution was her gorgeous laugh and the energy she brought to the Inman Valley workshop. Ell is studying architecture and will no doubt become a wonderful architect (or biotect!). Welcome to the team Ell!
Brooklyn Mabbott is a passionate horticulturist and crafty-creative who has demonstrated that she has the vigor and strength for Earthship construction and education at Earthship Inman Valley - welcome to the crew Brooklyn! She is also the pioneer of an amazing new fashion: cob moccasins! (see photo above - first photo in the Inman Valley slide show).
THE HOST & ORGANISER
Amy Mackenzie is our super energetic, up-beat, and visionary host. She is the inspiration and star of the "Come To Amy's" YouTube video (credit also to Jiffy Robertson who is the musical genius and Jord Edmeades who is the cinematographer genius). Amy wants to help mainstream Earthships, especially in the suburbs and her project will be a wonderful, pioneering example of what can be done on a residentially zoned block. Amy has been to the Earthship Biotecture training in Taos New Mexico, USA and has worked with GIVE Volunteers in Nicaragua building a school from plastic bottles, and in Nepal rebuilding homes after earthquakes. She is super excited to be breathing life into her personal dream and cannot wait to meet other like minded, passionate and up-lifiting individuals who want to journey with her on the adventure!
THE DESIGN
Earthship Goolwa is essentially an "open-ended" Earthship floor plan with strawbale walls at each end of the building. This design was developed to suit this small suburban block. In what is potentially a world first (!) the berm of the Earthship has been reimagined as a wastewater disposal area that will turbo charge the cooling tubes! It follows all the usual Earthship design principles. It is off grid for power and sewage and an existing mains water supply can be used in an emergency to top up the rainwater tanks. Council approval is in progress and we are confident this will be in place any day now! See the floor plan and images below.

- Learn how to evaluate soil type and then mix it up with sand and straw to make super sustainable and versatile cob and adobe (a special type of mud!)
- Learn how to make your own “can wall” as we create “lost form work” for the greenhouse stem wall bond beam
- Cooking in a camp kitchen
- Organising a workshop
- Creating a positive community
- The chance to offer your own mini workshop session in an area you are passionate about (eg: dance, yoga, art, music, skills etc)

LOGISTICS
Ideally there will be 30 students supervised by 5 instructors. With 35 people onsite we will get a lot done!
The minimum for the workshop to run is 20 students.
More students = more instructors = more fun! Please enrol early
See the Terms and Conditions below for further info.
SAFETY
It is very important we all stay safe and have a great workshop. Safety is everyone's responsibility! We should all have a "White Card". This is the minimum safety training for working on a construction site.
We encourage you to investigate the various options that are available for both online White Cards and face to face training - typically half a day of training. If you decide to organise your own White Card training, make sure the training is offered by a legitimate registered training organisation "RTO". We recommend an RTO called FACT here is the link.
White Cards obtained from interstate are valid in South Australia! Hooray!
