I received an e-mail from Becky Bee and thought it may be of interest to some here who are interested in cob building.

Becky Bee is one of the major promoters, teachers  and authorities on modern cob building.

If the workshop is out of question for you but you want to learn about cob, I have read and recommend reading her book.

If that is still too much, a portion of her book is online for free.  http://www.weblife.org/cob/index.html
