Announcing an opportunity to finish one cob cottage and do major building on 
another -- all materials on site and ready to go -- we just need you !

The first Los Olivos cob workparty will begin Friday May 23 and go thru Sun. 
May 25. All cobbers are welcome to camp on site of the beautiful Figueroa 
mountaintop ranch overlooking Santa Ynez valley. This is about 40 miles north 
of Santa Barbara. We will be continuing our efforts from the April workshop 
and adding new structures too. For pictures of the project and site please
