This firing will be a single chamber firing, utilizing wood ash only. Led by past resident and friend of the iCCGS Alea Walter, the goal of this firing is to initiate seasonal community focused firings.

This deposit will be returned after Nov. 21st when we (as a group) have passed the Cleaning Inspection.
