You're been asking for ages, and this year we can happily offer adult workshops at the farm! We are delighted to offer more opportunities to adults as well as kids for reconnection to the land. Run by Coleen, these five workshops offer a variety of hands-on experiences.

SHEEPSKIN TANNING
Dates: August 26th - 28th, 9-5 pm 
Cost: $450- $650 Sliding Scale

This is a three day workshop transforming a sheepskin into a soft, beautiful rug. You will learn how to clean a sheepskin, rack a hair- on hide, dry scrape, soften a hair on hide, and smoke tan hides. These skills can be easily transferred to any hair on hide if it be a road kill muskrat, to a domestic rabbit, to a cow hide. This is a physically intensive process that requires endurance of body, and spirit. You will leave with your own sheepskin!
