Join us this Spring as we sculpt a small cottage in the woods. In this weekend workshop you will have the opportunity to get your hands (and feet) dirty mixing and building with cob, stacking straw bales, and making and applying earthen plasters. Lectures and discussions will also cover: light-straw-clay building, design basics, foundations, roofs, and more. We will have the opportunity to tour a hybrid pole frame-straw bale-cob home, a straw bale-cob sauna, and a cob oven. Participants will walk away from this weekend with the techniques and principles needed to begin building with natural materials.
