Owen: They sometimes sell clay at masonry supply places. It is called fireclay. I would think though that you could find clay anywhere just look for a construction cite near you.

We can't dig up our yard (according to my fiance although I think we probably could, even make it look better) so we are trying to find a source suitable. She looked at Lowe's and couldn't find it, even talked to a knowledgeable person who actually knew what cob was said they didn't have anything for it. I was curious if anyone had any ideas of where to get it from and what type of clay we should be looking for?
