Hey Mud Family, The MOTHER EARTH NEWS FAIR is coming back to Wisconsin, September 16-17, 2023, at the Washington County Fair Park & Conference Center in West Bend, Wisconsin.

We hope you will join us for the fair and maybe a little Natural Builders get-together Friday night before the fair. James Juczak and I are running the Building and Energy Stage.
Our currently scheduled seminars and hands-on workshops will include: 
Build a $25 Composting Toilet
Save 50% or More on Your Power Bill
Fairy Houses to Forts: Hands On Mud Building for Kids
The High Art and Subtle Science of Scrounging
Hands On: Build Your Own Wood-Fired Pizza Oven From Dirt
Water for the Homestead
Clean Free Heat for your Home or Greenhouse with a Rocket Mass Heater
Mortgage Free: Strategies for NOT Having a Mortgage
Alternative Energy Systems for the Average Person: Solar, Wind and Microhydro
Building Codes for the Owner-Builder 
Hands On: Building with Cob
Hands On: How to Stop Being Afraid of Power Tools

*Please check the schedule online before you come because things may change.

There are several other stages with lectures and workshops plus vendors for everything from Homestead Livelihoods to Herbal Remedies to electric tractors to Earth-Friendly-living books. 

Here is a link to purchase tickets. https://store.motherearthnews.com/products/wisconsin-fair-2023/?ref=oj7l703h Kids 17 and under are free. I think you can get $5 off when you check out with my discount code UNCLEMUD

I see the price of the compostable toilet went up $5 by the time I read the page from bottom to top, that is a bad level of inflation you have there!

Yup, the discount worked!  Online price is $30 and because Uncle Mud has that awesome code, it drops to $25.

I went to this fair a few years ago and it was a really good time.  I volunteered to speak at this one but their slate of speakers was already full.  Hopefully they have a cancellation and I can talk about SKIP :)
