SOLD OUT: Natural Plaster Workshop: Cob Finish for Cob Bathhouse


  • Hawk Meadow Farm 5066 Mott Evans Road Trumansburg, NY, 14886 United States (map)

This is a 2 day workshop where you will learn how to apply cob to different wall systems and also clay and lime plaster on the Cob/Cordwood Bathhouse at the beautiful Hawk Meadow Farm! We will also be building a curvy and beautiful cob shower wall. Participants will get their hands in the mud and learn how to mix and apply different clay and lime mixes, including cob, clay plaster and lime plaster. Students will gain the confidence to use these techniques in the future. Participants will also learn how to source materials necessary to make different natural building mixes and practice the application techniques using trowels and hands.

Matteo’s enthusiasm for natural building is contagious. His teaching style focuses around empowering participants to really “go for it” and learn by doing. Throughout the workshop he weaves stories of the natural world and he really dives deeply into “The Why”

In this workshop you will have ample hands-on experience with guided instruction from Matteo. He will cover the whole range of comprehensive information on the world of Natural Building. You will also be fed an organic homemade healthy lunch. Please reach out if you need lodging accommodations
