About

Welcome to Fresh Egg Build!  This is a blog dedicated to our first owner-built home.  My husband Rusty and I are building a home we plan to raise our three children in…assuming we do a good job;-)  I refer to it as our “green home in the country” because it is just that — green.  The color green that is.  Rusty said I shouldn’t call it green because some people consider green a religion.  So if you’re reading this blog solely for the crunchiness, don’t get bent out of shape if our carbon footprint more closely resembles my size elevens.  While we are planning on incorporating many energy efficient features, this blog is more about documenting the process of building a home from a non-handy-girl’s point of view.  We want to remember the process and highlight the many contributors and craftspeople that go into making our house a home!
