We are launching our Year-End Fundraiser with a goal of raising $20,000 by the end of this year. Over the next six weeks, our Steering Committee members will share stories of what we've done - reflections from our year of folk schooling and the milestones that brought us joy!

 

This week, Margot Schwarz kicks off our series with an overview of our favorite accomplishments from 2025. Margot is passionate about community-building, regenerative food systems, and empowering folks to learn from their neighbors!

Students and teachers from the October class: Building Greenwood Stools. Over four hard-working weeks, students made stools that will live in Tarweed's classroom for future student use.

What a month! October marked Tarweed's busiest month ever, with 20 total class days. Throughout the month, it was a joy to see so many students and teachers sharing knowledge, swapping stories, and working together!


Tarweed has a lot more fun planned for the coming weeks, and we hope you'll join us! Read on to learn more about NEW holiday classes, our 2nd annual Holiday Market, and how to participate in a November Fiber Swap - bring in your fiber stash, participate in a community exchange, and sign up to join a blossoming fiber arts group!
