Hearth and Handcraft

A skills based after school program for middle and high schoolers

​Hearth and handcraft offers middle and high school students an immersive experience in nature, exploring the forest while learning hands-on crafts and practical skills. Participants will engage in activities like friction fire, tracking, fiber crafts, carving, medicine making, stone and bone tools.
