This October a group of us met 1st at Tinker and then at Carol's house to create Hypertufa "stuff". Click below to see what we created. Part 1 was held at Tinker and taught by Laurie Burtner Hypertufa Workshop - Saturday August 16 & 17 from 6PM to 8PM at the barns at Tinker Nature Center on Calkins Road.
Master Gardener Laurie Burtner has volunteered to do a
hypertufa workshop for our group. Members would pay only for
materials - just a few dollars. We would need to meet for about 2.5
hours and then again for about an hour the next day.
Here is a list of the items that you would need to collect
- some could be shared. We would need to purchase the product to make the mix,
so an accurate count is necessary. There are also pictures below of a planter
and a mill wheel that Laurie has made.
Your mold
1 Large flat
mixing container (approx. 30x 24x 6 deep) in shed
Face Mask - a
white painters face mask (important to use especially when mixing dry
ingredients)
