Brainstorming: New outbuildings for Better Farm

We are growing! The overwhelming success of Better Farm's sustainability internship program and betterArts residencies has left us short on space during most of the year. Instead of packing more people into the main house, we're looking outward; at new, unusual dwelling units that will provide a private space for future interns and artists to call home during their stays at Better Farm. Here are a few ideas we love...

Teepee. No brainer.

Straw bale cottage (check it out at Tiny House Blog)

Houseboat!

A real-life gingerbread house!
