🛖 Build Together, Learn Together:
Join us for a hands-on Cob Camp where we’ll explore the art of natural building by constructing a cob wall from the ground up! This weekend is perfect for beginners who want to get muddy, build new skills, and connect with others in a beautiful, supportive environment.
You’ll learn the basics of cob—how to source materials, how to make mixes with confidence, and how to build, sculpt, and shape with cob—while helping bring a real structure to life. This is a great way to dip your toes (or your whole feet!) into natural building. Ideal for people seeking to start their own cob projects.
