In today’s housing market more and more people are building their own much smaller homes than those just a generation before.  Cob built homes have been around centuries. They are inexpensive and green to build. They are also quite easy to maintain and withstand all kinds of weather. This could be the answer to the financial and green building issues experienced by homesteaders and preppers.

Especially easy to do and maintain could also  make them the bug out location of choice.  Because they can be built by ordinary non construction skilled individuals just about anywhere.
