Natural building methods offer housing that is sustainable, cost efficient, and has a low carbon foot print.  Naturally constructed buildings use local, recycled, or on-site materials.  The construction of smaller living spaces keeps the cost down.  Vajra Azaya assists with materials and labor for naturally built structures.  These structures are made with straw bale, cob, earth bags, earth bricks, bamboo, lumber or other recycled materials such as pallets.  These structures are used for residences, recreation, and cottage industry.
