CLASS FULL
It’s a wonderful feeling to cook and eat with utensils you’ve made yourself! In this introductory carving class, led by Ryan Johnson, learn to make beautiful handmade wooden spoons from wood using a knife, axe, saw, and gouge. We’ll discuss which tree species to carve, where to find them, and how to harvest them sustainably. Then, we will section the logs into billets and begin carving. Each step of the process, you’ll follow along with the instructor to make your own spoon to take home. You’ll also get to meet other carvers in the community and socialize while we carve. You might even get to hear a good story or two! Tools and materials will be provided. If you have tools or woods of your own you would like to use, you are welcome to bring those along too!
