More about the Wild Clay Retreat
In this 4 day intensive course you will identify, collect, process, build and fire local clays whilst diving deep into ceramics theory and learning how to apply this newfound knowledge to any location on earth.
Throughout the weekend you will put the theory into practice, visit local clay sites, build a wood fired kiln and carefully tend to the flames as they transform your pieces from water soluble clay into functional pieces for you to take home and enjoy.
By Sunday you will be able to recreate the process at home, aided by a detailed guide outlining the entire course and new friendships forged around the fire.
To deliver our unique wild clay retreats, we have teamed up with Tierra de Arcillas, a ceramics workshop located at the foot of the Alpujarra Almeriense.
Julia and Milena collect, process and convert local soil into unique clay bodies that reflect the story and identity of their region. Merging modern design and techniques with age old wisdom they bring to life the history and tradition in contemporary homeware.
You will be staying in the Garden Room at the guesthouse on the Las Mecías farm. All meals will be provided by Laura and Nina; former chefs with over 15 years of combined restaurant and hospitality experience. All ingredients are sourced locally or grown directly on the farm and each menu reflects the natural transition of the seasons.

If you’re interested in hosting your event with us, get in touch we’ll aim to get back to you within a couple of days.
From there, we have a few standard questions and will send through our fees, which contains all the information you need.
Once both parties are happy we’ll schedule a video call so we can get to know each other & discuss any further ideas/questions you may have.
We value an open, honest and timely line of communication and look forward to working together!
"Laura and Nina have found a beautiful piece of land in the Sierra Nevada and they have wonderful visions for it. It's a place where you can enjoy miles and miles of pure landscapes, pick wild fruits and herbs and see the vegetation slowly come back to life. It’s a true gem that allows you to reconnect with nature. “

More about the Wild Clay Retreat
In this 4 day intensive course you will identify, collect, process, build and fire local clays whilst diving deep into ceramics theory and learning how to apply this newfound knowledge to any location on earth.
Throughout the weekend you will put the theory into practice, visit local clay sites, build a wood fired kiln and carefully tend to the flames as they transform your pieces from water soluble clay into functional pieces for you to take home and enjoy.
By Sunday you will be able to recreate the process at home, aided by a detailed guide outlining the entire course and new friendships forged around the fire.
To deliver our unique wild clay retreats, we have teamed up with Tierra de Arcillas, a ceramics workshop located at the foot of the Alpujarra Almeriense.
Julia and Milena collect, process and convert local soil into unique clay bodies that reflect the story and identity of their region. Merging modern design and techniques with age old wisdom they bring to life the history and tradition in contemporary homeware.
You will be staying in our peaceful Yurt on the Las Mecías farm. All meals will be provided by Laura and Nina; former chefs with over 15 years of combined restaurant and hospitality experience. All ingredients are sourced locally or grown directly on the farm and each menu reflects the natural transition of the seasons.
