Hi all. Again, yet another newbee here. I am north of Seattle about 20
miles in Lynnwood. Has anyone in the north central Sound done any cob
work? I am looking at soil on my property and finding that it is
glacial till. It appears that it is mostly sand and rubble with little
(if any) clay. Though I continue to dig hole and shake jars. I know
of clay yards by Issaquah but I would like to not have to travel so
far for clay. Anyone with familiarity of this geography?
I appreciate any help or suggestions. I want to build a Solar Passive
Greenhouse in year or 2 and have plenty of time to research. Just
looking for a little feed back on this type of soil, if you have any.
