Earth Haven
This is your chance to participate in a 3 week internship on the beautiful Waiheke Island learning a diverse range of skills centred around alternative methods of building and integrated off-grid systems.
There will be a range of interesting and informative experiences over the course of the internship. specifically we will be working on 2 buildings; a cob studio with a reciprocal roof and working towards finish renders on a mud brick studio. This internship is for those wanting to gain skills and knowledge in natural building specifically as we will be working in a small team of 4-5 working full time hours during the week.
This is not a facilitated workshop, instead this is an experience to live and work on an eco village, create with your hands, share food & knowledge, collaborate with other like minded people and share a space for inspired learning. Living costs are shared and free accommodation is the individuals responsibility (tent or similar) and they must commit to the full 3 weeks (7th – 27th Feb). Your teachers are Rosa Henderson from Sculpted Earth (earth builder – Sculpted Earth), Don Stodart (sculptor and woodsmith) and Leif Stodart (landscaper and stone mason).
