As a new year takes root, we feel incredibly humbled by the support and love we've received from all of you in 2025. Thank you! Your support helps Tarweed grow our capacity to offer more classes, secure scholarship funding for students in every class, throw a few more free gatherings and crafty parties, and so much more.

We were on the radio! Folk Schools teach the connection of the hands, heart, and mind through skills learning. Rose Holdorf of Corvallis' Tarweed School speaks with Oregon Grapevine host, Barbara Dellenback, about creative learning through natural materials, and the value of community.

This week, Sunia Yang reflects on generosity and the power it holds, when you receive it but also when you bestow it. Sunia has taken all kinds of classes at Tarweed, supports our free events and offerings, helps us figure out systems and numbers for our organization, and will also lead few lichen walks next year!
