Tarweed is hosting two high school interns this Spring, and their time with Tarweed is soon coming to a close! Along with administrative support and learning about the inner workings of a nonprofit and folk school, Lillie Epps and Hazel Seivers shadowed Steering Committee members and deepened their relationships to craft.
Keep reading below to learn about their internship experience so far!
Spring is here and Tarweed Folk School is ready to release our summer classes. What a joy! It is no small thing to gather all the people and details and logistics to line up a season of offerings. And imagine another amazing aspect of bringing it all together - that you all show up and take part!
We welcome a few new local teachers who are sharing their skills in fish leather, timber framing, and sock darning!
Want to help grow new classes?
Bread-baking, biochar, bike repair, earthen/natural building, timber-framing, metal work, basketry, plant medicine, animal slaughter and butchering, hide-tanning…?
We know there are a lot of folks out there who can teach, but maybe they need need someone to ask them, or a place to work, or a group of folks willing to sign up, and maybe some dollars too? If you’re in either of those groups, we’d like to invite you to help us develop a way for people to be in touch quicker and more easily than we can do with our occasional newsletter and limited capacity.
If you’re interested in participating, we’ve set up a list serve that you can join by sending an email to tarweedcommunity+subscribe@groups.io.
