Join us for a weekend of fun in the mud with Chris McClellan (”Uncle Mud”) as we build a wood-fired cob pizza oven from local sandy clay soil.

Enjoy family time in the great outdoors at Bending Oak Permaculture Farm where you will learn how to build a “Pizza Party Factory” in your own backyard. Be prepared to get muddy! Bring a sack lunch and a favorite pizza topping. This is a one-day event but camping is available.

The price of adult workshops includes admission to the farm & an exploratory tour. If you are interested in adding accommodations to your event registration you may do so once you have your event in your cart. More info on accommodations here.
