Earth Building Workshop
In this 7-day container, we will be co-creating an outdoor kitchen that will serve future residents and retreats; a lasting, living structure shaped by many hands.
This immersive experience invites a small group of participants to:
• learn hands-on earth building techniques,
which will include arches, earth bag building, cob, adobe, and maybe other techniques like light clay straw, if the project ends up requiring it.
• Learn to mix and apply natural plasters
(clay, lime, tadelakt finishes)
• Experience the art of living in rhythm with the land, off-grid, surrounded by the wild beauty of Baja California Sur, Mexico. -
Residency & Work-Trade Program
This offering follows our Earth Building Workshop and welcomes a small number of dedicated humans who wish to deepen their learning through hands-on contribution, community living, and creative collaboration.
As a work-trade residency, residents contribute approximately 5 hours of work per day (5 days a week) in exchange for:
• Staying on-site and immersing in the rhythms of the land
• Continuing to learn alongside skilled builders and facilitators
• Participating in the Earth Building Workshop sessions and ongoing projects, like the Pyramid Float Room
• Being part of a living, evolving space dedicated to natural building and collective growthDepending on your skills and interests, contributions may include:
building and plastering, gardening, cooking, hospitality, photography, content creation, or general maintenance, all guided by our shared intention of creating in harmony with the Earth.
