Straw Bale

A straw bale is a bale of straw. Straw bales are not just useful as fodder for cattle and other livestock, but are traditional building materials. Straw bale construction involves stacking and compressing straw bales as walls and using a lime render to finish the walls. Straw is an excellent insulator and natural materials are better for human health and quite often cost-effective.
