Join natural builder, Miguel Elliott of Living Earth Structures and Sustainable Fairfax, as we construct an earthen wood-fired oven for baking pizzas, veggies and breads. On day one, we will cover making the foundation, insulating the floor, building the oven, and making the door opening. Day two, we will insulate the oven, sculpt it into a fun design, and learn about plastering techniques. A simple bamboo roof will be constructed over the oven.
