Go Green Expo The Saturday team representing EBANZ at this year’s Go Green Expo in Auckland. They were joined by Thijs Drupsteen on the Sunday. This is one of the big events in which we participate each year to raise the profile of earth and natural building and we spoke to hundreds of people over the weekend. Many thanks to all the volunteers who gave their time and energy. Special thanks to Martin for the new and improved stall layout, image boards, and samples.
