First time using a rocket mass heater. Really enjoyed it and liked learning about the way these operate. It did great no smoke out of the door and the priming caught the small tipi initial fire so it helped to get it primed and hot enough to start sucking the smoke in more aggressively before having to open the door to add more wood.

Heya got a little stool finished. Excited to try this again and angle the legs more, sand the top, and make sure the legs are more uniform. But very much enjoyed the practice!

Miner's lettuce, sheep sorrel, and a few violets for a foraged salad.

Hey there,

For this bb I combined with the bb for food prep make pizza with polydough which I just posted on that thread. I don't have documentation of the dishes being cleaned up because dinner finished late and I was quite pooped ha so I'm not sure if this will qualify but here we go. I've got the group of people who could testify to getting a night off dish duty haha. There are photos of the clean kitchen that I took the next morning. I served 8 people, made 10 pies with both vegan and dairy options and a bonus desert pizza with pear, rhubarb crumble, and maple syrup

I did both kale and tomatoes for this bb. I was so eager to use the dehydrator I didn't read the documentation needed beforehans and then the group and myself were excited to eat it afterwards so the finished kale picture is the meager scraps haha. I don't have a photo on the scale but I do know it was approximately 12 Roma tomatoes and 4 bunches of three leaves of kale. Thought I'd post my documentation and give it a shot!

Hey there!

I'm here at the PEP event and am finally getting to posting all of the bb's I've been working on now that we are coming to an end. I used the polydough recipe https://permies.com/t/1371/kitchen/Poly-Dough-pizza-bread-fry and made enough pizza for the community bb as well and will post there as well.

Hello everybody,

I'm really excited about this event and will serendipitously be in Montana in May coming from Texas. I was just wondering, as I've never been to Wheaton Labs and am very new to permies, do I just need to pay the $100 fee to secure a spot or is there any type of application?

Thanks so much and looking forward to the workshop!
