How to keep moisture or water away from your earthbag foundation and walls

We definitely need this drain many times during construction as it has rained a number of times. This method helps keep the building foundation dry during and after construction.

I originally built my house on wooden piers, I later went and filled it in with earthbags filled with decomposed granite and small amount of cement. I then built a small knee wall between the bags and floor joists. Worked awesome, it’s been twenty years now.

Can you explain how you are laying down bags over the rebar?

Good to see that the Permaculture community is helping out the petroleum industry by giving them a place to dispose of all that poisonous toxic plastic. In this guy's stomach and bloodstream. Bon Appetit!
