I want to first start by thanking all the wonderful participants that joined the Natural Living School in 2014! Completing yet another amazing building season. We started this season by wrapping up last year’s greenhouse project. This included: adding windows, doors, greenhouse plastic and a finish plaster on the inside and outside of this cute greenhouse. Thank you all who made this possible!


Next we started the construction of the “Ash-Room”, a cinder bath for goats, chickens and “Lilly the Donkey” to roll around on ash, keeping the mites off their skin and the sun off their backs. A project sponsored by ‘The Yogoata” of Ananda Village

This structure is our first round wood timber frame to include lath & plaster, and light clay all together. It was lots of fun to build.

We continued our work on the Wright Family Cottage, AKA the Studio. Working with the county was stressful, but in the end we were able to give them what they wanted, and we passed our foundation and framing inspections. Just a few more, including electrical, finish plaster, and then we get our Final. Wooo, we are so close….

Also at Melissa’s we built her a round bale-cob pump house that she will use as cold storage year around. Thank you all who made this project a reality.


Stay tune, we will be announcing next years project really soon……
