Thanks to all who came out last week to help the lovely ladies at Café Flores. Here is some video of firing the cob oven we built last week. Despite the rain on Saturday night we still had quite the fire going. I’m still sorting through the photos from the build days so stay tuned.
Tools of the trade. We are working on all the final details for tomorrow’s build at Café Flores. We hope if you are around Ometepe tomorrow you stop by and check out the awesome cob oven we will be building. Café Flores is located next to the Zopilote bus. We are building from 9-5 February 19-20. Donations are welcome to help fund the build. #designtools . . . . #naturalbuilding #coboven #adobeoven #breadoven #sustainablebuilding #sustainable #sustainableliving #sustainabletravel #transformationaltravel #travel #permaculture #permaculturedesign #permacultura #nicaragua #ometepe #ometepeisland

We have been asked to help some local women build a cob oven for their restaurant and of course we said Yes! If you will be on Ometepe next week come on out to lend a hand. Wednesday and Thursday we will be at Cafe Flores in Madroñal near the Zopilote bus from 9 to 5 dancing in the mud and getting dirty. Lunch is included and donations are welcome to help cover the cost of the build. #supportwomen #buildnaturally . . . #coboven #adobeoven #naturalbuilding #naturalbuildingworkshop #breadoven #pizzaoven #cobbuilding #adobebuilding #greenbuilding #greenliving #sustainablebuilding #sustainableliving #sustainable #sustainablity #sustainabletravel #educationaltravel #travel #centralamerica #centralamericatravel #nicaraguatravel #nicaragua #ometepe #isladeometepe #permaculture #permacultura
