Roofing the Potting Shed @ Doubtless Bay Catchment Nursery

Rescheduled Due to Weather.

New Date: Thursday Dec 22

Following on from the highly successful adobe building workshop at the Mangonui nursery site 2 weeks ago, tutor Grant Steven will return to help complete the potting shed. With the half-walls well underway, it remains to create the roof. Part of this will be made using a similar technique to the walls, with bamboo framing plastered with the special 'light earth' mix.

A big thank you goes out to all those who attended the first workshop and helped get this essential structure started, bringing the reality of the community catchment nursery a step closer.This second workshop is open to all. It is free but we would prefer if participants could come for the whole day.

Time: 10am to 3pm, Thursday Dec 22

Place: 6 Wrathall Road, Mangonui. Turn off State Highway 1 by the Mangonui Fire  Station. Site is about 50 meters along on the left.

Bring: hat, drink, lunch, gumboots. Gloves for plastering would be  handy, but we have some onsite as well.
