Spring 2023
It’s hard to know what to call April here in Maine. Spring seems ambitious but, the peepers are out, if you look closely there are the smallest of buds forming in the trees and just yesterday the first small crocuses made an appearance. So yep, I’ll go with spring.
It was a light winter in the shop by design, but work is heating up now. There’s lots to clean up around the place, we were hammered by several winter storms and they left their mark in the woods. Shop projects are also in full swing, mostly class prep. I’m teaching 6 weeks between now and mid September so the focus will be getting kits ready for classes and of course traveling to teach.
I’ve added two new classes to the line up, a weekend woodworking class and a one week Fox Canoe building class both at HatchSpace in Brattleboro VT. I’m really excited to be working with the folks at HatchSpace. You should see Scott Farm where we’ll be holding the Fox class! Come to think of it all the places I’m teaching are just wonderful and I’ll get to spend lots of time outside and camping. Good work if you can get it.

Build a FOX canoe in a class
