Thinking About a Cob Home?
You have just opened the door to a wonderful, sustainable, eco-friendly reality! Cob buildings create an environment that is nourishing to the soul. Becky Bee is is in love with cob and so became the founder and mother of Groundworks, a cob building company.
Becky shares her experience of 15 years in workshops using natural materials of clay, sand, straw, mud and alternative building materials. She helps people make hand-sculpted environmentally friendly sustainable housing in the country as well as in the city or town.
Becky offers hands on workshops for co-ed groups as well as women only events. It is in this way that Becky, who, "Wants to make sense in a world where many things don't." makes her contribution to the eco-friendly green movement.
Becky is author of the Cob-Builders Handbook and You Can Make the Best Hot Tub Ever!
