Fiber Arts
Fiber arts make up the largest part of the catalog, and much of the work starts in the ground: flax is grown, dressed, and spun here, and the dye gardens supply color for the dye pots.
Students spin, weave, knit, felt, hook, braid, stitch, mend, and dye, at the rigid heddle and the floor loom, at the dye pot, and at the table with a needle. Some workshops spend five days on a single technique and others make one object over a weekend, but all of them treat cloth as something made by hand, from material you can trace.

The work, up close
Where classes meet
Workshops meet in the farm's studios, shops, and barns, and some spend part of the day outdoors. Your studio is confirmed at check-in on the first morning.
