Did you know you can replace sand with recycled glass (agamite) to make mortar?

When crushed into fine grains, glass creates a strong, durable, and sparkling mix that’s both eco-friendly and beautiful. 🪨✨

Using glass as aggregate not only reduces waste but also adds a unique shimmer to walls, stonework, and natural building projects. 🌍🙌

Join our upcoming workshop at Talking Water Retreat and learn how to mix, build, and create with recycled glass mortar!

This week we’re mixing up something magical: mortar made with recycled glass as the aggregate (agamite)! 🫙➡️🪨

Instead of sand alone, we have teamed up with using their recycled crushed glass and turning it our mortar ✨- holding our stones & walls strong for years to come.

It’s recycling, reimagined. ♻️
It’s natural building with a twist. 🌍💫
And it’s seriously beautiful. 💎

Come to our workshop on Monday Aug.25th and see for yourself!!

Nature's treasures are at your fingertips!
