We’re excited to announce a two-part Hempcrete Building Workshop taking place this August in Parkdale, OR, at the base of Mt. Hood. Join us for a deep dive into hemp-lime construction on a full-scale 2,000 SF residence currently under construction!
Workshop Dates:• Session 1: August 15–20• Session 2: August 23–28(Participants are welcome to join either or both sessions)
Each day is structured with in-depth morning lectures followed by hands-on installation in the afternoon. We’ll cover:
✅ Hempcrete installation techniques for interior and exterior walls
✅ Architectural Planning, Engineering, Framing systems, and structural detailing
✅ Code-compliance and permitting pathways
✅ Moisture management & thermal performance
✅ Project planning, tools, materials, and build process
✅ Review of full plan sets from permitted hempcrete builds
This is a wonderful opportunity to experience a real-world hempcrete build in progress, learn from a team with many years of experience in design-build natural construction, and coonnect with other hempcrete builders and enthusiasts.
Location: Parkdale, Oregon (near Hood River)
