Learn how to build your own beautiful eathern pizza/bread oven for your garden

Nothing cooks pizzas and bread as well as an earthen oven in your garden. The texture and flavour of is out of this world. And not only are the pizza ovens wonderful to cook and entertain with, they're also works of art.

We're running courses all year on how to build your own pizza oven/ bread oven. All courses take place at our idyllic site on the edge of Filby Broad in Norfolk.

With a little instruction, and lots of laughter, we'll show you how easy it is to create your own pizza oven from the earth beneath your feet. We'll show you how to dig the sub-soil from your garden and re-mix it the correct proportions with a little straw to create a beautiful and enduring bread or pizza oven.

The course is a great introduction to anyone wanting to build their own oven or wanting to begin to learn the art of building or working with cob. All courses include a hearty lunch with delicious bread or pizzza cooked in an alredy exisitng earthen oven.

We look forward to meeting you soon and introducing you to the heavenly tasting world of earthen pizza ovens!

Alternatively we can build an oven for you

You may not have the time to build your own oven, or perhaps playing with mud isn't quite your thing! If so you may prefer to get us to build you your own bespoke, beauitful and delicious earthen woodfired pizza oven for you.
Kate Edwards is a sculptor as well as a cob expert, so your oven will be a work of art as well an authentic and fully functioning wood fired oven. You can choose the shape or design you want Kate to create - you may want a simpe organic shape or you may prefer a design such as a snail or fish or anything you can imagine!
Contruction of your oven will involve 3 seperate site visits. Day 1 we build the base (you choose what sort of stone or brick you want). Day 2 we build the earthen oven and sculpt it to your requirements. Day 3 we lime render the oven. There are a few days between site visits to allow the oven to dry between stages. The cost of a 1m diameter complete oven is usually £1500 including all labour and materials.

We can also build and design a shelter for your oven so you can even cook in the rain. We can discuss this with you when you get in touch.
