Modelling with Wild Clay Workshop – Saturday 14th June

At Meadow Orchard, weโ€™re excited to harvest our yellow London Clay for pottery, perfect for low-temperature wood-fired ceramics. The site, once tennis courts, is rich in clay and ideal for sustainable, locally sourced materials. Our permaculture ethos aligns with using local sustainable materials. We’ve built a clay roundhouse, a natural puddled clay pond, a clay oven, a clay rocket stove and now pottery feels like the next step. In spring, weโ€™ll begin harvesting and testing the clay with local artists and ceramicists. Early test results are promising, and we canโ€™t wait to share the process. Get in touch if youโ€™d like to join us on this creative journey!
