Cob Spring Intensive in Arizona FYI

[Marna Hauk]

Greetings!  
Thought there might be folks on this list interested in knowing about and
passing the word about a Spring Straw-Bale and Earthen Plastering
intensive that a colleague of mine is helping to organize and teach. 

The website address is:  http://www.teleport.com/~sparking/wombuild.htm

Spring Straw Bale Building Intensive for Women:  Join us in Tucson,
Arizona as Women Build Houses presents a series of three workshops
designed for women interested in working in the trades, contracting, or
architecture, or  intending to build their own straw bale homes.  A small
cottage will be completed throughout the series, which includes a Straw
Bale Workshop (March 14-22),  a Roofing Workshop (March 25-29) and an
Earth Plastering Workshop (April 25-May 3, with a mini-plastering workshop
April 25 & 26). For more information and an application, send email
