Crops in Construction with with Architect, Tim Tasker

Award-winning architect, Tim Tasker, who designed the FarmED Conference Barn and Cafe, has recently been working on a new building at Honeydale Farm which is constructed of hempcrete, a hugely versatile, breathable and sustainable building material that captures carbon.

Tim has been working with UK Hempcrete and the Centre for High Carbon Capture Cropping and on this episode of the FarmED Podcast, Tim talks to Alex about why he is so excited about the opportunities of hempcrete. He discusses what makes a healthy building and how hemp could potentially revolutionise the construction industry, offering opportunities for farmers and creating sustainable, affordable building materials with could also make self-builds easier.

Tim also talks about his vision for the future - why we need more beauty in house building and his ‘big aim’ to encourage a ‘network of small businesses’ around the country that could supply localised construction as ‘an alternative to commercial construction techniques.’
