Schoolyard Pizza Oven Workshop - School Workshops
Workshop will include how to design and build a small pizza oven with a 24" diameter baking floor. You will learn how to build a foundation, a thermal mass dome with insulation and how to mix and apply earthen plaster. Materials used are: clay, sand, straw, dry horse manure, water, linseed oil, fire brick, cement block and mortar. We will also utilize recycled materials and will give suggestions on how to use primarily salvaged materials. This is a State supervised project, and we are under specific guidelines, however, homeowners may build differently if they choose.
The oven construction uses simple building techniques involving mixing with your feet and sculpting with your hands. We welcome participants of all ages and abilities at our workshops.
