About this Event
Welcome to Wildcraft Workshops Gatherings
There is something deeply satisfying about making things by hand. The way beeswax melts and sets into a candle. The slow alchemy of a fermenting jar. The earthy scent of an herbal salve coming together between your fingers. These are not lost arts β they are waiting to be remembered.
Wildcraft Workshops is an invitation to slow down, step away from the rush of daily life, and reconnect with the timeless skills of the home and land. Set on a breathtaking seven-acre property in Sebastopol, nestled between open meadow and old-growth redwood and bay laurel forest, each workshop is an intimate, hands-on experience where you will leave with a new skill, a handmade creation, and a deep breath of something you may have been missing.
We gather once a month, following the rhythm of the seasons, learning crafts that have been passed down through generations of women who knew how to make something from nothing and find deep satisfaction in doing so.
What to Expect
Each workshop runs two to three hours and is designed for small, intimate groups of women β no experience necessary, just curiosity and a willingness to make something beautiful with your hands, and a love of sisterhood!
Every workshop includes:
- πΏ All materials and supplies
- π Hands-on instruction in a warm, welcoming setting
- π A handmade product to take home
- β Light refreshments
- π² Two to three hours on one of Sebastopol's most magical pieces of land
