One of the great things about taking a cob oven workshop is the level of skill you can gain in just one day. Learn to mix and build with cob, a load-bearing, earthen material you can build your house with ‘dirt cheap.’ You can even make furniture, cabinets, sculptures and home decor out of cob!
During this workshop we will learn about the way an earthen mass oven works, how to choose the right ingredients for your cob, and ‘learn by doing’ as we build a cob oven:
- Lay firebricks
- Build a form
- Mix fire cob & regular cob
- Build cob layers of oven
- Build the door
Lunch will be provided.
