TARWEED SEEDS

Learn about Madelaine Corbin's Introduction to Natural Dyes class next month!

It is the peak of summer, with the earthy aroma of Madia elegans (common tarweed) in the fields, and the acorns beginning to form on the oak trees all across the Willamette Valley. The days are noticeably shortening, and fruit is ripening faster than we can pick it (or preserve it!). We are grateful to everyone who participated in our spring and summer happenings, and we are excited to be able to announce a full list of classes and special events from September through November - open for registration today!

It is a bustling season for Tarweed around town! We have been hosting classes, tabling at the Corvallis Farmers Market, building new workbenches for classes, and getting the word out across the Valley. And next weekend is our big summer event: an Open House to celebrate our new home and the opening of Wade Hardware!

 

Read on to learn about more classes - (some still with openings) and other events!

Greetings, Tarweed friends! The solstice is approaching and the days are long, helping fruit to ripen and flowers to bloom.

 

While many of us are busy tending to our gardens (lots of watering!), getting ready for camping trips and travels, and embracing the buzzing of summer, Tarweed Folk School has put together a few new classes and events that we hope you will enjoy. Read below to learn about our upcoming classes and events, Community Listserve, and other exciting Tarweed news.
