SaunaScape

Are you looking to build your own sauna? Are you an aspiring mason? Do you have a bunch of logs laying around your property?

If the answer to all these questions is a resounding “Yes!” then the workshop for you is taking place between Rochester and Buffalo NY later this month.

The Cordwood Sauna Workshop is scheduled for September 26-27 in Elba, NY. Tuition is $200. For more information, you can download their brochure [PDF]

If you can’t attend, but are interested in these techniques, you can read the article from the December / January 2000 Mother Earth News where this picture was taken. It is also available in book form: Sauna: A complete guide to the Construction, Use, and Benefits of the Finnish Bath. The author, Rob Roy, runs the Earthwood Building School, which offers seminars worldwide about these techniques.

Additional information about cordwood masonry and other natural building methods is available at Rochester Green Living.
