Workshop Description
This two day cob pizza oven building workshop will be run by Child of the Earth CIC at a beautiful community farm, just outside of Cardigan. You will get the chance to work with an experienced natural builder to learn how to build, use and care for a traditional cob pizza oven. From puddling clay to constructing the oven you will get hands on with all stages of this eco building technique. The oven you build will then be a resource for the local community, including two family-friendly community pizza events in September 2024.
