1-Day Intro to Cob Building Workshop #1
April 20 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
$150 – $175In this workshop, you will learn what cob is, how to mix it, and how to use it to create a natural wall. You’ll also tour the Mud Dauber School of Natural Building campus to see and discuss our demonstration cottages, cob oven, and cob/strawbale garden walls.
This is a great course for anyone interested in cob, but unsure of whether you want to take a more intensive course.
You’ll be mixing with our feet, and applying with your hands – dress to get muddy!
About the Mud Dauber School of Natural Building:
Our mission is to empower people by teaching them the skills of natural building. We believe in the effectiveness of hands-on learning, and we make that our focus. We also recognize the importance of community, and weave this belief into our workshop format through shared meals, cob oven pizza parties, and emphasizing a team approach on the worksite.
The Mud Dauber School campus shares land with the homestead of the owners Greg & Danielle. We began running natural building workshops here in 2014, and have co-created with our students a series of natural demonstration cottages, garden walls, and community spaces. With each new season, we continue to work on our campus, building new spaces and finishing old ones.
