Adobe Making June.2010

June. 2010. Participants during this all day hands-on workshop, learned age-old traditional methods for making adobes and adobe wall construction at Hamaatsa's demonstration site. We were blessed to have renowned adobe instructor Quentin Wilson from El Rito, come join us. Quentin shared his knowledge for Identifying and mixing correct soil properties; mud making; molding; curing and drying the bricks; making mortar; and a single brick wall construction. We will offer this course again, next summer!
