Alex Sparrow, co-author of 'The Hempcrete Book', will speak to us on the wonderful qualities of hempcrete after doing a workshop to retrofit a Victorian terrace house in Cambridge with hemp-lime.
Hempcrete is a natural building material with excellent qualities; it is breathable, creating healthier buildings; it has exceptional thermal performance, combining insulation with good thermal mass; and it has low embodied energy.
The book will be on sale on the evening and there may also be copies of the recent Polish translation, too.
This is a free event,with a cash bar. a fitting start to the Open Eco-Homes event in Cambridge.
