We lead pottery and ceramic art classes for children and adults. Our classes range from beginner to advanced. Learn how to hand build, wheel throw and even slipcast your clay dreams! Classes are scheduled here and there in our slow seasons. During the busy season we are making pottery for shows and sales, tending the chickens or building houses!
We have a tiny little gallery for selling our members’ work that is currently under construction. Peggy sells ceramic art and functional pottery as Good Pottery.

Peggy Frith has been studying and practicing traditional building techniques since 1998. Her mentors and peers makeup the grandparents of the North American natural building movement. Her building consultation and instruction service operates as “Dirty Dreams” (you bring the dreams, we bring the dirt!).
Peggy designs and builds, using permaculture and traditional building methods. Her experience includes dozens of buildings, from chicken coops to comfortable, modern family homes.
Have you always dreamed of living in a healthy, natural home? Peggy and her team will assist you in designing your dream home using traditional clay building methods, coupled with modern innovations. We teach owner-builders and contractors how to build out of clay soil and other non-toxic materials in order to bring the dream to life!
Our building consultation and instruction service, Dirty Dreams, offers:

Use our contact form if you are interested in volunteering to learn natural building skills.
We are offering Pottery Camps for children and youths this summer. Sign up for our mailing list to be prioritised on our waiting list and be the first to hear about class offerings.
Adult pottery classes will be announced shortly through our mailing list. Would you like some one on one pottery instruction? How about a class for just you and your amazing friends? Email us to set up a private class.
Do you see a theme here? We’re leading you all to the easiest and best way to stay abreast of all the things Fabulous. It’s no secret that Peggy is a twit at emailing and so you can be guaranteed to only get emails from our mailing list when something really good is happening. Once you are in the fabulous farm family, we will just call you on the phone like it’s the 1990s. This mailing list is the closest thing we could get to photocopying a poster and putting it up once in a while.
The buildings here at Fabulous Farm are all beautiful examples of clay building techniques. We have several cabins for farm workers and volunteers. Are you looking for a farm to call home in the Slocan Valley?
