Earthen Oven Build

Learn to build an earthen oven good for cooking pizza, bread, and much more! Over the course of two days participants will get hands on experience all the steps needed to build a functional earthen oven. Cob ovens are inexpensive and beautiful wood fired ovens that anyone can build. These ovens can be used to bake bread, cook pizzas, and anything you could normally do in a conventional oven, but with the fun of being outdoors.

Participants will also receive a tour of four complete structures; a balecob home, strawbale workshop, balecob guest studio, and pallet cob chicken coop. Included in the tour are 3 Rocket Mass Heaters (batch and J-style) for winter heat,  earthen floors, and many other natural elements for discussion. Learn how you can build a home for less than a year of rent and still be comfortable and warm.
