I have helped make a foundation for straw bale using first a 18 " deep trench .. that comes up with rock near the ground & then had 3 layers of rock IN burlap bags ( with barbed wire between to retard slippage ) . This allowed for drainage of water ... as the trench was dug like a french drain. I suspect eathen bags might not work or would be problematic for a foundation.
I have NO clue as to code or laws regarding .. this seems to vary per state / county / area.
Good Luck ! Glenneth
