Natural Building Workshop set for June 27-28
Our long-awaited hands-on Light-Straw Clay Workshop is slated for the last weekend in June, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 27 and 28 at the Halfway House Permaculture Learning Center in McKinleyville. Levon Durr of the Humboldt Permaculture will lead the way!
We especially invite members of the Humboldt Natural Building Guild to not only attend but continue to hone skills during a series of summer work parties. The HNBG aims to advance natural building through workshops and hands-on building opportunities. Members get into most events free, or receive serious discounts – in this case, new members will receive a $20 rebate on the June workshop. See below for membership info.
Join the Humboldt Natural Building Guild, a growing community that is passionate about building with local and salvaged materials. Stay tuned for future workshops on hempcrete, light-straw clay construction and natural plasters. For a one-time membership dues of $25, you will get into all future events free or at a serious discount. Click below to sign up.
