Olla making workshop: Hydration and conservation

Are you tired of worrying about watering your summer veggies? This water-saving workshop has the solution! You can make your own unique water irrigation vessel for the summer.


What's an olla? 

🌿 A traditional, unglazed clay pot with porous walls that allow water to slowly seep through into the soil, directly hydrating plant roots. 

🌿It helps conserve water by reducing evaporation and runoff, making it perfect for hot, dry summers and busy, water-conscious gardeners. Just top it up every few days and let the olla do the work!

🌿By burying it in your garden, container, or raised bed, you can water directly at the roots and save 50-70% of water.



Want to know how to make your own and get started for the summer?👇

In this workshop, you'll get hands-on and make your own irrigation vessel using moulds and pipes. 

Even if you're new to clay, no worries! You'll receive guidance throughout the process, and by the end, you’ll have a vessel fired to the perfect porosity to use at home.
