性欲社 will offer a log cabin building workshop May 16-31 at the Matanuska Experiment Farm in Palmer.

The workshop will run 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, with one day off after every five days. Robert Chambers, world-recognized authority on handcrafted log home construction, will lead sessions on how to build with green logs. Participants will practice basic procedures and techniques.

Cost is $1,200 for a 10-day class on building log walls and $500 for a four-day class on building roof trusses. The cost to take both classes is $1,400. Contact Valerie Barber, director the 性欲社 forest products program, at 907-746-9466 or vabarber@alaska.edu.
