getting plastered on earth

Friends, families, and priceless volunteers came out to AVI during the First Annual Ashevillage Building Convergence. Our house was a project site along with others around town that hosted super cool awsome stuff like construction of rainwater catchment systems,cob garden shed and living roof at a couple of local elementary schools. Other projects included building a living garden trellis out of willow, huge mural under the 240 overpass, urban plant walk at the Edible Garden, and earthen plaster at our house!
