Open Tours of Blue Rock Station

Event Details

Tour the Earthship - a 2,200 sq. ft. home made of tires, cans, bottles, salvaged lumber, mud, sand, sweat and tears.  Annie & Jay will explain the various construction techniques and how the building uses the earth and sun to provide a comfortable place to live.

Explore the vaulted Straw Bale "Chicken Chalet".  This building houses our rare breed chickens (you may even get a chance to feed them).  It is built with a pounded tire foundation, straw bale walls, beer bottle front and back walls and a mud plaster finish.

Learn about rare breed chickens.  We will discuss the changes in agriculture in America that have lead to the near extinction of most of the most common and popular farm animals of our recent past.

Say hello to the llamas and perhaps take one or two for a walk.  Throughout the day we harness up the llamas and let our visitors take them for a little stroll as we walk the grounds of Blue Rock Station.
