One of the great draws that earthbag building has is its financial accessibility. It is simply polypropylene bags filled with compressed dirt stacked on top of one another. The building technique is very straight forward, though labor intensive.
Polypropylene bags are readily found. Farmers around the world use them to store feed, rice etc... So acquiring large quantities of them should be a fairly simple and inexpensive process. Simply fill it with dirt, tamp them solid and move on to the next one. I think even I could handle that.
