On Monday, October 16th, the EcoNest Builder’s Workshop began with ten participants. With the timber frame raised, it was time to set the Larsen trusses used as the framework for the clay-straw material. Three days later, we were joined by another eight people to form the community of natural building enthusiasts that was to play a key role in building our EcoNest. The pictures on these three pages were taken over the course of the workshops which wrapped up on October 22nd.
