Enrollment will be limited to the first 16 people registered for the workshop. At least one half of the total tuition must accompany the Pre-registration form to hold your space. The balance can be paid at formal registration at 8:30 a.m. on the first day of the workshop.

The tuition fee for this special 2-day workshop is $200 for an individual, or $380 for a couple. Lunches are provided on both workshop days, and good quality work gloves are given free to each student. We supply all necessary tools. Cordwood books and plans will be available for sale at the workshop.

A suggested textbook for the workshop is Cordwood Construction: A Log End View 2009, and can be found HERE. It will help prepare you for the cordwood workshop and give you the necessary data to make good decisions when making the many necessary choices for your cordwood project. We highly recommend you purchase it before the workshop!
