Natural Dye w/ Ramsey Harvey @gardenofhara
Participants will learn the fundamentals of preparing fibers, creating dye baths, and using natural mordants while experimenting with a variety of botanical materials. Together we’ll uncover the magic hidden within everyday plants and watch as fabric is transformed into one-of-a-kind pieces infused with the colors of the season.
Open Fire Cooking w/ Melody Haege & Anna Maria Disipris
You will explore temperature control, essential tools, and time tested recipes while preparing a meal from scratch.
Participants will gain practical experience baking rustic bread, cooking a hearty, farm-style one pot dish, and mastering the skills needed to create delicious food in the great outdoors.
Flower Farming w/ Sarah Withers @nestinthewest
Participants will learn the fundamentals of growing cut flowers, including variety selection, succession planting, harvesting techniques, and post-harvest care to maximize vase life.
After exploring the flower field, you’ll harvest seasonal blooms and foilage before learning the art of bouquet design. We’ll cover color harmony, focal flowers, fillers, and greenery selection. Participants will work together to create their own market-style bouquet while gaining practical knowledge to start growing flowers for personal enjoyment or local sales.
