Matt Grocoff and Joe Trumpey are were in the HOUSE today! Co-hosts Rebecca Hardin and Laura Smith conversed with Matt and Joe throughout the hour about their amazing homes in the Ann Arbor area.
Joe Trumpey, a professor in the School of Art & Design and the School of Natural Resources, built his off-grid home by hand.
