Work has been continuing at EcoWorks with the Straw Bale building in Nottingham. The building, now being fully enclosed [short of the main doors, the door frame is still being constructed], and all window frames fitted.
On Saturday 17th January, Becky led a team of helping volunteers in adding clay slip to the inside walls.
This will be continued next Saturday 24th January. More hand are needed, so if you like getting messy, please go along.
So, dear readers, if you have enjoyed watching the progress of this building being constructed ..... how about getting out from behind your computer screen, and get up to EcoWorks in the new year, and volunteer your services.
All could have been done a lot earlier, if a bunch of 'already-skilled' people had just got on with it. But, it was generally descided that by involving many volunteers, folks might go away, and having been inspired by the project, and with a bit of hands-on experience ....... have ideas and help others think about what they could do with other sustainable projects in their own areas.
