Clay plastering volunteer's week at Rock Farm Slane with Jo Forsyth (clay master)

We are blessed to have Jo Forsyth with us on the week of 20th - 24th April. Jo has worked with clay for many years and is a great workshop leader and skilled artist who is passionate and knowledgable about working with clay. We are running a volunteer's week at our LIVE eco-build at Rock Farm Slane to get the clay plastering done in time to open the building on 29th May!

This volunteer's opportunity is FREE OF CHARGE to those who will be able to offer us at least 4 days volunteering over the course of the week. Please call us to discuss your availability.
