Natural Building Workshop

A Quinta da Lage

Building a home with natural materials is an empowering, humbling and inspiring experience. We will connect with the earth, with ourselves, with each other and with these ancient building techniques which are silently ingrained in all of us; together we tap into this forgotten knowledge and bring to life the knowledge and skills to create your own home. This workshop is for people of any age and physical ability; no one is excluded from building with earth. We embrace our diversity and differences, our strengths and weaknesses; we can all play an essential role in the building process no matter how big or small.
