Meeting in Estonia

On 13-17 May we had the project meeting in Estonia. As the meeting had to be practical, we carried out half of it in Middle-Estonia in Sinioru near Esna manor.

Everybody had the possibility to practice plastering and making a wood shindles roof. A pizza-oven made of clay got the first layer of clay and lime plaster (clay for the upper part, lime for the basement). And the roof above it got covered with wood shindles. The practical work was a lot of fun and everybody seemed to enjoy it.

We also visited ecological houses in Koordi village (Sven Aluste, NGO Equilibre), where took place small workshop about natural paints. In Tallinn we visited the Open Air Museum and the old town.

During the meeting the Italian and Turkish delegation got an overview of Estonian traditional and ecological building.
