Earth Plaster Extravaganza!

October 7th and 8th

Spend a day or the weekend with us during the best time of year!  We will be mixing up some earthen plaster and applying it to the exterior walls of one of our strawbale cottages.

It’s been 5 years or so since we have done this, and since then we have perfected an exterior plaster recipe that includes wheat paste, chopped straw, cactus goo, and of course the requisite sand and clay.  Plaster parties are always a fun time!

Saturday morning we will give a full tour of our sustainable site, and get muddy after that.

On Sunday we will fire up the earthen ovens and make pizzas for the crew.

Please RSVP to amanda@ampersandproject.org so we can plan for your arrival and beds for those who wish to stay over.
