Ferncliff Camp and Conference Center (Little Rock, AR) is hosting a 7-day Straw Bale Building Workshop the week of April 8th-14th. The workshop will be taught by Andrew Morrison of Strawbale.com, a leading expert in the field. This very ‘hands-on’ workshop is designed to teach participants everything they need to know to build their own straw bale structure. Ferncliff is building a 5300 square foot Eco Center and participants will get their practice on it.

Meals are provided. It is BYOT (as in Bring Your Own Tent) or bring your bedding and stay in Ferncliff’s log cabins or tree houses. Participants have the option of paying a bit more for retreat style or hotel room lodging. The registration is found on the Ferncliff website. The cost is either $700 upfront, or $400 deposit and $400 one month before the workshop. Go to the strawbale.com website or call David Gill (501-821-3063) for more information.
