Ray Cirino’s  Butt House Cob Workshop ­

 Why hasn’t anyone
really made a restroom fun and educational? How come when there is a 
composting
toilet made its hidden away in the woods with hardly any details to make it
last in your mind? 

 We plan on changing
all the myths and scary things that have been attached to resting in that 
room.
They call it that to avoid scaring people or calling it a bathroom to avoid 
dealing
with that so called problem. Well now you can help yourself in learning cob 
and
composting in our first cob workshop here at Water
 Woman Gardens.
Serious attention will be put to this structure and the importance of
composting. First it will resemble a butt so it’s easy to know what it is and
we all know what that does.  Second it
will have no smell except for gardenia, roses, mint, or lavender that surround
it. Third the hardware details will mimic the microbs that digest the
nutrients. The roof will be able a living roof and able to catch some 
rainwater
for the garden. Let’s make this workshop bring the right attention in a fun 
way
to solve the problems and myths of restrooms once and for all.
