Brigid’s Cross Course
Our second annual Brigid’s Cross Weaving class. Join us at Lost Bridge Beverage Company’s tasting room in North Bend, Ohio, to learn about the history and tradition of Brigid/St. Brigid crosses and then weave one (or more!) of your own to hang in your rafters (or on your front door) well in time for the traditional February 1st. Good company and light snacks and an excuse to get out of your house and beat the cabin fever from setting in after the holidays!
Tickets available here.
Willow Farming Class
Do you want to learn how to plant basket willow of your own?
Come join Amy of 65willows for a two-phase class. The first hour will be spent indoors discussing the basics of planting, care, and harvest of basket willows. The next few hours we’ll head outdoors doing hands-on harvest and planting of willows in one of 65willows’ beds. After, we’ll head back in doors to handle any remaining questions you may have.
And the class will happen rain or shine—cancelled only if we have a snowstorm or temps below 25 degrees. Dress accordingly and we’ll fill your thermos with hot coffee or tea before heading out to the fields.
If you’d like to purchase cuttings to start your own willow beds, you can do so during this class for a 20% discount.
