Clay/Earthen Oven Workshop June 8th 2013 Rhinebeck NY



Come join us for Mud Hen East's Clay Oven workshop led by John Corcoran inRhinebeck NY. 

This workshop  will lead participants through all the stages of building an earthen wood-fired bread/pizza oven. 

In this workshop we will begin with a discussion of the basic elements of building with earth.  This will cover aspects of soil composition, suitability for construction, and methods for testing.  Next, we will go through the steps of design and construction of our project, culminating in  hands-on work as we mix local mud and actually construct the earthen oven.

Come prepared to get your hands - and everything else -  muddy.

 This year's workshop will be held at the home of Georgia Dent 27 Lamoree Rd, Rhinebeck, on June 8th, rain date June 15th. The workshop will run from 10AM-3PM,  and  includes a delicious lunch made by Georgia.  Please RSVP info@johncorcoran.net and to hold your place, send check to John Corcoran 225 Kidd Lane Tivoli, NY 12583.
