We invite you to learn some natural building techniques and help us in the building of our straw bale staff house at Rolling Ridge.
We will teach lime plastering, clay plastering, and finish plastering. Learn how to mix and apply different layers over cob and strawbale. Understand the purposes of ingredients and which applications work for which purposes. Meet great people and have fun getting your hands in the mud!
Housing at the Retreat House (or camping if you prefer) and delicious meals for $35/weekend.
