Primitive Skills Workshops

Got skills? ... like nun-chuck skills?

Well, me neither. BUT, if you are into the earthy / primitive / survival -style skills, you are in luck! Super-amazing earth-skills expert, Fern Truitt, has joined the Fruitdale Farm team! AND, later this year, we will start hosting a monthly primitive skills workshop featuring a new skill each month!

We actually already kicked off this primitive skills series in March. The first workshop was held on Sunday, March 11th, where we learned how to make bowls and spoons using the COAL-BURNING technique. At the second workshop, held on Sunday, March 25th, we learned the art of the BLACKSMITH. Both workshops were well attended and everyone left with a completed piece and a new skill to take home.
