HempStone Resumes Hempcrete Trainings!
Hempcrete and Natural Plaster
HempStone’s training are back, and now better than ever!!
This summer, HempStone leads you through the installation of hempcrete and lime plaster in a complete structure. HempShed is a 10’x12’ fully framed structure with a concrete slab foundation, shingled roof, and pre-installed skylight, windows and doors.
HempShed is Happening in South Hadley, Massachusetts
Hempstone @ the HempShed
HempShed offers three distinct benefits over other trainings:
Working on a small, complete structure allows you to learn all aspects of hempcrete installation.
Student engagement dictates the pace with training as the singular focus of the weekend (rather than production/completion).
Repurposing existing infrastructure is a carbon-conscious way to utilize resources. HempStone is pleased to be able to enhance the usefulness of this building with radical responsibility.
A HempShed training provides you with a solid frame-to-finish understanding of a hempcrete structure.
