Cob Ovens are a relatively inexpensive way to bake, with all the benefits of wood-fire such as a hot hearth.
Materials are raw and often sourced locally from the land.
This Cob Oven was built leading up to the 2008 Forest Festival held in Jackeys Marsh, Tasmania.
The oven is a design from Build your own Earth Oven by Kuko Denzer. Many thanks to Jenny for the photos...

Homesteading, the practice, gets its name from the Homestead Act of 1862, when Americans were granted federal land if they promised to build a home, make improvements, and farm it. On the frontier, people had to make their own way.

Allen David Reed's curator insight,
November 14, 2013 9:57 PM
---------------------------------- It has been well known by the truly ‘awake ones’ over the millennia of time that water is crucial to life. In fact, as Dr. Pollack points out, it is core to life. Any intelligent Being would immediately see that there must be a reason for this, rather than dismiss water out of hand as some meaningless substance, as most of our ‘post modern’ scientists now do.
Water is consciousness - at least the form of water Dr. Pollack is speaking of - and this is a taboo subject in today’s commercial world of life-robbing sugar soda and fluoride. If you step back and connect the dots, and understand the agenda by some to harness you like a battery as was made popular in the movie “The Matrix”, you will quickly get that you’re being sold down the proverbial river of ‘da-nile’, that is, until you choose to be Sovereign in your BEINGHOOD.
As I discuss in BEINGHOOD - Book One, water is love, water is the carrier of memory, water is intelligent, water is alive, and living water (until you kill it as we mostly do now in our modern plumbing and microwave ovens) is a crucial source in your ascension to BEINGHOOD, your longevity and just plain happiness! Cranky, angry people are acidic, positively charged, and for the most part living inside of negative, limited Fear-Based Worldviews.
Choose to love your Self, choose consciously living, structured, clustered, negatively charged water, become alkaline in your diet, get grounded, get lots of sun and expand your awareness with gratitude for all of the consciousness that is everywhere and you will quickly find yourself living in a parallel universe of joy and abundance.

Fifty years ago 180,000 whales disappeared from the oceans without a trace, and researchers are still trying to make sense of why. ...But it was in this space, between the false numbers and the real ones, that the researchers’ work became engrossing in ways that had little to do with marine biology. In gathering the figures, the researchers had also gathered stories that explained how the figures had come to be—the scientist who had stashed heaps of documents in his potato cellar; the whaling ship captain accused of espionage; elaborate acts of high-seas tactical misdirection and disguise usually reserved for navies in battle. The authors, I realized, were assembling not just a scientific record but also a human history, an account of a remarkable collision between political ideology and the natural world—and a lesson for anyone seeking to protect the fragile ecosystems that exist in the world’s least governed spaces.

Deanna Dahlsad's insight:
From the article: Interestingly, respondents do not believe this trend is driven by consumer demand. Company executives feel most consumers today are only moderately interested; respondents estimate that only 2 percent of consumers are “very interested” in sustainable lifestyles. However, those polled do believe that within five years, 98 percent of consumers will be moderately to very interested in sustainable lifestyles. This belief by company representatives polled is supported by recent consumer activism and studies that show an emerging generation of socially and environmentally conscious purchasers.
