Workshop builds cordwood structure for GBG

Agriculture Lab Assistant Grant Matheke takes a break during the construction of a cordwood shed at the Georgeson Botanical Garden.
A Summer Sessions workshop attracted hard-working students who helped build a cordwood shed at the Georgeson Botanical Garden July 27-29.

Led by Rob Roy, the workshop focused on the principles of building a cordwood structure and included hands-on training at the garden. The shed will be used for storing tools.

A closeup shows the pattern of cordwood in the shed wall.
