[Santa_Cruz_Permaculture] Earth Oven Workshop this month

[Grow Food Party Crew]

*Earth Oven Workshop *

*
*

*June 27th & 28th - Santa Cruz, CA *

Fun to make and even more fun to use, earth
ovens<http://urbanearthsolutions.com/earthovens.html>bake like
expensive commercial wood-fired ovens while costing a fraction of
the price. Ideal for baking breads and pizzas, earth ovens use radiant,
conductive and convection heat simultaneously - producing crunchy,
caramelized crusts with moist goodness on the inside. Built out of unfired
clay, they can be hand-sculpted into beautiful works of art, making a
creative addition to any backyard or patio.

During this weekend workshop we will build an earth oven at a private
residence in the Santa Cruz area. The workshop will cover basic earth oven
construction from start to finish. Participants will learn all of the
essentials about building an oven which includes: how to gather raw
materials, build foundations and apply protective plasters. An earthen bench
will also be included in the oven design, so participants will get a chance
to explore simple earth
bag<http://urbanearthsolutions.com/livingwithearth.html#eb>and cob
<http://urbanearthsolutions.com/livingwithearth.html#c>building techniques.
This workshop is labor intensive, giving ample “Hands-on” experience.
Participants will walk away from the weekend feeling confident about
building their own earth oven. This workshop is geared for people of all
ages and skill levels.

The workshop will run from 10am to 3:30pm. Participants are encouraged to
arrive at least 15 min. before the workshop begins to sign in and get
settled. Participants should plan on bringing their own water, snacks and
lunch. There is a sliding scale set up for those of us whom are experiencing
economic hardship (trust me I know!). For more information please feel free
