> This workshop will focus on sculpting walls for a small earthen structure.
> We’ll cover the basics of cob building including foot and tractor mixing,
> trimming, window and door installation, sculpting niches and shelves, and
> talk about how to incorporate different design features depending on your
> needs. The cob method is deeply green. It utilizes non-toxic, inexpensive,
> extremely local materials  and low-tech, low carbon footprint (*not to
> mention awesome fun*) building processes. Come learn to build with the
> earth beneath your feet. Our workshop is designed to wake up and empower
> the natural builder in you! Tuition: $177

Plant so that your own heart will grow.
Love so God will think, "Ahhhhhh, I got kin in that body! I should start
inviting that soul over for coffee and rolls."
Sing because this is a food our starving world needs.
Laugh because that is the purest sound. ~Hafiz
