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.

What an amazing weekend of September classes! Folks learned how to weave baskets, carve spoons, make acorn flour, fix their bikes, woodwork, and more!


We had so much fun at our pizza potluck too, sharing what we learned and connecting with new friends over yummy wood-fired pizza. We want to thank everyone who participated in a class, as a teacher, learner, or pizza eater!
