Woodworking
The farm's sawmill was built in 1829 and still runs on water, sawing timber from the farm's own woodlot, and the woodworking workshops pick up where the sawmill leaves off.
Students carve bowls and spoons from green wood, turn on the lathe and the pole lathe, build chairs, boxes, and shave horses, and learn to sharpen and tune the hand tools that make the rest possible. There is a place here for a first-time carver with a knife and for a furniture maker who wants to build a Windsor chair, and every class ends with something you can use.
Workshops
The 2027 workshops in this discipline will be listed here on Saturday, November 28 at 8 a.m.

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.
