Join us for a fun learning experience.  For this event we have a strict limit of 20 people.  Sorry but spouses, children, etc. will all count and require a fee.  This is our first workshop and we simply feel this is as many individuals as we can accommodate the first time around and do a good job for everyone involved.

There will also be a bonus, as we got a great rate on the mini excavator so some work will also be done on our new 2700 square foot forest garden showcase.  While we will not be planting this area some of the main frame rough in will be done and the master plan explained to all students.
