What's New??
The sculpted bench that was created
despite unseasonal rains
during our spring 2003 workshop in San Diego.

At the 6th Women's Natural Building Symposium a wonderful gang of gals and five fun kids created a week long family group from across the states and as far afield as Ireland and Japan. A great time was had by all making plaster magic on the sacred cob temple in the Arkansas Ozarks.


Heather Windsor gave in depth lessons on how to wire your own house.


Erin Collins gave a talk and demonstration of her work in Ireland doing traditional reed thatching.
