We are building up a picture gallery of Rolling Ridge and the local area. These are the slide shows that are currently available.
- All About Rolling Ridge Study Retreat Community
Come visit! From Route 9 take Mission Road South six miles to the Rolling Ridge sign. Turn left on the gravel road and follow the signs to the Retreat and Community houses. Contact Bob Sabath at 304-724-6653 to arrange your retreat experience.
- Cordwood Workshop July 2006
Cordwood uses locally harvested poplar and pine, provides thermal mass for solar heating, great insulation, and a lime based mortar that actually absorbes CO2 in the curing process. Bottles provide a splash of color in the walls. We had a great weekend of building, learning, and lots of laughter.
- Post and Beam Construction June 2006
This shows the process over a week's time in putting up the post and beams to support the cottage. Jay Goode did amazing work leading the project. Bob and Rachelle helped a lot as well.
- Quick View: From Felling Trees to Building the Cottage
If you just don't have the time to look through all the photos of the building process, this slideshow will take you through it with a minimum number of photos.
- Strawbale Workshop September 2006
On September 17th we had a small, productive workshop led by Sigi Koko. From learning general principles of strawbale contruction to shaping bales to fit our application, to mixing and applying clay plaster, it was a wonderful day!
- Friend's Wilderness Center
The Friend's Wilderness Center is one of the user groups on the land. This is a slide show about their work.
