This site looks interesting.  Though it's not directly involved with cob,
it has things which cobbers might still be able to use:

This is Goshen Timberframes, located in North Carolina.  They give free
workshops in how to do traditional timber framing.

... is their site on strawbale construction (which of course some cobbers
have used in conjunction with cob).  It has a very interesting section
(http://www.timberframemag.com/strawbale.htm#AGRIBOARD) about Agriboard, a
3.5" thick fiberboard made from agricultural byproducts, i.e. straw etc.
The manufacturing process uses heat and pressure, no chemicals.
