taught. Ponds.The two ponds will have the ability to purify water
through oxygenation and water-cleaning plant life.Water to be used
for composting tea and other applications. Seating.The seating
should be available to persons enjoying the kitchen as well as a
place for classes to gather. Compost.Worm bin seating in two

- Things to keep in mind when choosing a site for the oven: Is it
close to the kitchen?Where will you prepare the foods that will be
baked?Is there a water source near by? This is necessary not only
for the mixing of cob but also for fire safety.Is the ground level
or slightly sloped? You do not want to build on ground which has
too much of a slope.Will the oven be built under a pre-existing
roof or overhang? If not, a roof will need to be built to keep the
cob structure as dry as possible.Where will the firewood be
stacked? The wood needs to stay dry too!What are the fire
hazards?

renewable resources & services) -Creates a cool shaded place
near the heat of the kitchen(use & value diversity, catch &
store energy) -There are 2 sources of water nearby(catch &
store energy) -Cycling use of nutrient rich water from pond(produce
no waste, catch & store energy) -Use of vertical space(use
edges & value the marginal) -Grow food & herbs(obtain a
