ABOUT ABOUT

We invite you to join a community of fiber enthusiasts for a weekend of learning! Try a new craft in our bustling fiber shop/studio, located above our James Beard Award-winning cafe. Much like the materials you will work with, each meal is crafted from ingredients grown and prepared here on our farm.

This experiential learning opportunity gives participants a unique insight into the sustainability of our fiber, food, and farming practices.
