In December 2024, we packed our bags and headed to the stunning Moruya Heads, NSW, to film an unforgettable three-day HempBLOCK Australia training course. The location? Picture-perfect—a serene spot where the bush meets the beach and creativity flows as freely as the tides.
What Went Down
This wasn’t just another workshop; it was a gathering of passionate minds, all eager to explore the incredible possibilities of hemp-based construction. Builders, owner-builders, and sustainability advocates from across the country rolled up their sleeves and got hands-on with HempBLOCK. The training, led by Johan (the mastermind behind HempBLOCK International) and Rosa (our expert trainer), covered everything from the why to the how of hempcrete building.

Highlights From the Training
- The Setting: Moruya Heads provided the perfect backdrop for this training. Between sessions, we soaked up the sights and sounds of nature, a fitting reminder of why sustainable building matters.
- The Expertise: Johan and Rosa didn’t hold back, sharing invaluable tips, tricks, and techniques to help participants feel confident with hemp construction.
- The People: The best part? Meeting a group of like-minded individuals driven by a shared vision for greener, healthier spaces. Conversations flowed, connections were made, and ideas for future projects began to take shape.
What We Captured
In case you missed it, we filmed the entire experience! Here’s what you can look forward to in the videos:
- Behind-the-scenes moments that show the hands-on nature of the training.
- Interviews with participants sharing their excitement and plans for hempcrete.
- Insightful clips from Johan and Rosa that showcase their passion and expertise.
We made several YouTube Shorts during the filming of and in the lead-up to releasing the full video, which served as promotional teasers. Due to these Shorts and our concerted rollout across various social platforms, this first important video of Hempcrete in Australia Season 3, of Episode 1, was a huge success. The result? The video went almost viral! Within the first week of going live, it was clear that it would garner far more views than our previous releases.
A recent short course, improved camera equipment, and advanced editing software all combined to elevate the final product with a vast improvement in video production quality.
Why It Matters
Hemp building isn’t just a trend; it’s a game-changer. It’s healthier for people, better for the planet, and incredibly versatile. This training showed how HempBLOCK makes sustainable construction accessible and achievable for everyone, from seasoned builders to first-time DIYers.
