Cory Gordon

Cory is from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and for several years has worked as a commercial bush pilot and biologist in the Canadian North. While working in the northern wilderness, Cory was alarmed by the dramatic changes he witnessed taking place in the environment over a relatively short time period. He returned to Saskatoon in 1996, and influenced by his northern experience and Dr. Lynn Oliphant of the Prairie Institute For Human Ecology (PIHE), he became interested in creating sustainable solutions through the use of alternative building design and renewable energy technologies. Through his position as lead builder for the PIHE, Cory has offered several workshops on strawbale construction and other ecological building technologies. Cory also owns and operates Sow's Ear Builders, offering:

- Consultation in alternative buildings
- Project management
- Strawbale design & construction
- Energy efficient retrofits
- Sales & installation of solar & wind energy equipment
- Sales & installation of solar hot water heating equipment
- Hydronic heating installation
- Earthen plasters & floors
