John, Who Built our Cob Shed

Four years ago John Freeman built our cob shed, oven and green roof with the help of staff and many volunteers. Every day of that summer John answered endless questions and turned a building project into an educational experience for green builders. We will be forever grateful for the work John did and so will all the visitors who come by every day. City Farmer.

That's really cool. Did you coat the cob with lime or something to waterproof it? Also, how does the ove breath? Are there vents in the back? Thanks.
