Our Community Textile Studio and Incubator
Through workshops and retreats, learn the traditional arts for creating beautiful and durable goods from nature's gifts. Begin at the beginning with fiber from animals pastured and raised sustainably on our farm and near by farms. Create your own studio space, share your skills, learn from experts, and encourage others Knit, crochet, spin, weave, dye, felt, sew and more. As part of our commitment to being in harmony with nature, we use only plant based dyes from our native plants and cultivated dyeing garden. Complete a piece for a gift, or undertake a unique entrepreneurial venture. We can help with business planning, marketing and identifying sources of funding. Located in our Carriage House.
