Registrations open for EARTH BUILDING ACADEMY until 30 September
It is great to have you here. We are Verena and Scott.
By sharing our 30-year experience in the art and science of earth building we are empowering people the world over to get creative and reclaim the ability to build their own healthy living spaces, while having a minimal impact on the planet.
To support you in fast tracking your natural building journey, we offer online classes, programs, 1:1 consultancy and mentorships, allowing you to build your knowledge and skills, without the need to travel. We also run regular in-person workshops in Aotearoa New Zealand and will consider overseas teaching engagements.
From sculpting a pizza oven, to retrofitting existing spaces with natural materials, to the construction an entire new home with consented earth materials, to community projects or the building aspect of a PDC, to starting up your own mudbrick production or earth building business - we can assist with solid advice and help you develop your ideas and practical skills.
